  • Title: Capillary electrophoresis-based methods for the determination of lipids--a review.
    Author: Otieno AC, Mwongela SM.
    Journal: Anal Chim Acta; 2008 Aug 29; 624(2):163-74. PubMed ID: 18706322.
    Abstract:
    Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a high-resolution technique for the separation of complex biological and chemical mixtures. CE continues to emerge as a powerful tool in the determination of lipids. Here we review the analytical potential of CE for the determination of a wide range of lipids. The different classes of lipids are introduced, and the different modes of CE and optimization methods for the separation of lipids are described. The advantages and disadvantages of the different modes of CE compared to traditional methods like gas chromatography (GC) and liquid chromatography (LC) in the determination of lipids are discussed. Finally, the potential of CE in the determination of lipids in the future is illustrated.
