Precision and quantitation in capillary electrophoresis

  • Chapter

Abstract

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) describes a variety of electrophoretic separations which may be used to provide different data. In all cases, however, it is the peak migration time and peak dimensions which are used to derive the quantitative and qualitative data. Capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) and capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF) modes may be used to determine qualitative data but the most generally used CE techniques for performing quantitative analysis of analytes are capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC).
