    Author: Lee JH, Choi OK, Jung HS, Kim KR, Chung DS.
    Journal: Electrophoresis; 2000 Mar; 21(5):930-4. PubMed ID: 10768779.
    Abstract:
    An efficient separation of eleven nonprotein amino acids (NPAAs) and three protein amino acids containing aromatic moieties was achieved by capillary electrophoresis without derivatization. The fourteen amino acids were well separated with a 100 mM sodium phosphate run buffer (pH 2.0) using a 57 cm fused-silica capillary (50 microm ID, 50 cm effective length) at 20 degrees C. With an electric field of 351 V/cm, the time needed for the separation was less than 20 min. Under optimum conditions, excellent linear responses were obtained in the concentration range of 5-100 microM, with the linear correlation coefficient ranging from 0.9785 or greater. The relative standard deviations of the migration times and the corrected peak areas were found to be 1.5-3.9% and 8.0-11.5%, respectively. In order to improve the limit of detection (LOD), simple stacking and large volume stacking using an EOF pump (LVSEP) methods were used. Improved LODs were about 300 nM in stacking and below 15 nM for five small NPAAs in LVSEP.
