    Journal: Electrophoresis; 1999 Oct; 20(14):2856-63. PubMed ID: 10546820.
    Abstract:
    A new separation medium, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-g-poly(ethyleneoxide) (PNI-PAM-g-PEO) solution, used for double-stranded (ds) DNA separation by capillary electrophoresis (CE) is presented. This type of grafted copolymer has a good self-coating ability for quartz capillary tubing and a slightly temperature-dependent viscosity-adjustable property, making it easier to use. One bp resolution was achieved within 12.5 min by using 8% w/v PNIPAM-gPEO in 1 x TBE (Tris-borate-ethylenediaminetetraaceticacid) buffer with an effective column length of 10 cm and an applied electric field strength of 200 V/cm. The PNIPAM-g-PEO solutions had a high sieving ability for relatively small sized DNAs with the relative standard derivation for the first 10 runs being less than 0.9% by using the same polymer solution. With 8% w/v PNIPAM-g-PEO solution in a 1.5 cm column and 2400 V as the running voltage, phiX174/HaeIII digest could be clearly separated within 24 s.
