An automatic sampling device for capillary zone electrophoresis

摘要

AbstractAn automatic sampling device has been developed for capillary zone electrophoresis. The sample is introduced to the column electrokinetically by rapidly exchanging buffer for sample in a narrow channel drilled in a plexiglass block. The autosampler is capable, under computer control, of performing multiple sample injections from a large volume sample source (such as a reaction vessel) as the sample concentration changes, and thus presents the possibility of analyzing time‐varying processes by CZE. Peak area reproducibility in electropherograms obtained after use of the sampler is less than 1 and efficiency is more than 2.2 × 105theoretical plat
