Abstract

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been recognized as a precision tool, which is an excellent analytical technique with high sensitivity, high resolution, and has a robust ability for quantitation of the amount of analyte. It also has proven to be a versatile tool for the separation of an enormous range of molecular sizes, from small molecules such as inorganic cations, anions, and drugs, through to large molecules such as peptides, proteins, carbohydrates, polysaccharides, DNA fragments, and even whole chromosomes.
