  • Title: Micellar electrokinetic chromatography: current developments and future.
    Author: Molina M, Silva M.
    Journal: Electrophoresis; 2002 Nov; 23(22-23):3907-21. PubMed ID: 12481284.
    Abstract:
    This review highlights recent methodological and instrumental advances in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC). Enhancements in sensitivity and selectivity of the technique through the use of on-line preconcentration approaches (stacking and sweeping) and nonconventional pseudostationary phases, namely nonionic and zwitterionic surfactants, mixed micelles and polymers, are discussed in detail. Laser-induced fluorescence and mass spectrometry, as alternatives to UV-absorption detection, have been covered to evaluate their advantages and limitations when applied to analysis in an MEKC format. Some thoughts on future directions in this area such as in-capillary reactions, coated capillaries and MEKC on microchips are also presented.
