  • Title: Large volume sample stacking of positively chargeable analytes in capillary zone electrophoresis without polarity switching: use of low reversed electroosmotic flow induced by a cationic surfactant at acidic pH.
    Author: Quirino JP, Terabe S.
    Journal: Electrophoresis; 2000 Jan; 21(2):355-9. PubMed ID: 10675015.
    Abstract:
    A simple and effective way to improve detection sensitivity of positively chargeable analytes in capillary zone electrophoresis more than 100-fold is described. Cationic species were made to migrate toward the cathode even under reversed electroosmotic flow caused by a cationic surfactant by using a low pH run buffer. For the first time, with such a configuration, large volume sample stacking of cationic analytes is achieved without a polarity-switching step and loss of efficiency. Samples are prepared in water or aqueous acetonitrile. Aromatic amines and a variety of drugs were concentrated using background solutions containing phosphoric acid and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Qualitative and quantitative aspects are also investigated.
