Title: Mechanistic studies of partial-filling micellar electrokinetic chromatography. Author: Nelson WM, Lee CS. Journal: Anal Chem; 1996 Sep 15; 68(18):3265-9. PubMed ID: 8797385. Abstract: The need for coupling micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with electrospray mass spectrometry initiates the development of partial-filling MEKC. In comparison with conventional MEKC, only a small portion of the capillary is filled with a micellar solution for performing the separation in partial-filling MEKC. Analytes first migrate into the micellar plug, where the separation occurs, and then into the leading electrophoresis buffer, which is free of surfactants. A theoretical model is proposed for predicting the separation behavior of triazine herbicides in partial-filling MEKC. The comparisons between conventional and partial-filling MEKC in terms of separation efficiency and resolution of triazine herbicides are presented and discussed. The optimization techniques, possible applications, and advantages of partial-filling MEKC are similarly addressed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
