What is Capillary Electrophoresis?
Capillary electrophoresis is a separation method based on the differential rates of migration of charged species in an applied dc electric field
Electrophoresis was first developed by Swedish chemist Arne Tiselius in the 1930’s(serum proteins)
He was awarded the Nobel prize for his work (1948) The speed of movement or migration of solutes in CE
is determined by their charge and size ratios. Small highly charged solutes will migrate more quickly then large less charged solutes.

Types of Molecules that can be Separated
by Capillary Electrophoresis
• Proteins ,vitamins• Peptides • Amino acids • Nucleic acids (RNA and DNA)• Inorganic ions • Organic bases • Organic acids • Enzymes• etc.

Electrophoretic Mobility• It is the process in which sample ions move under the
influence of an applied voltage.• The ion undergoes a force that is equal to the product of
the Electrophoretic mobility and the electric field strength.• The flow of ions is toward the opposite charged electrode.
Where,
µEP = Electrophoratic Mobility
q = Charge on ions
η = Viscosity
r = Radius
E = Electric field strength.

Electroosmotic FlowThe heart of capillary electrophoresis
is electroosmotic flow(EOF).This is the mobile phase ‘’pump’’ in
capillary electrophoresis.The rate of EOF is generally greater
than the electrophoretic migration velocities
This flow occurs when buffer pH greater than 3 and the SiOH groups lose a proton to become SiO- Increase the pH intensity of EOF also increases.
V total = VEO + VEP
V electrophoretic (EP)
V electroosmatic (EO)

· Electroosmotic flow does not contribute significantly to band broadening like pressure-driven flow in LC and related techniques

Where,μEOF =Electro osmotic mobility.C= Dielectric constantE= Electric field strength ζ= Zeta potential.η= ViscosityVEOF=Velocity
μEOF = C.ζ 4πη & VEOF= μEOF.E
● The speed of EOF can be adjusted by changing the buffer pH
● Bulk movement of solutes is caused by EOF● EOF is usually sufficient to sweep all +ve,
neutral, -ve species towards the same end.
The velocity of ions is sum of velocity of EOF and EPF ( VTotal=VEOF+VEPF

.
• If the analyst wants the EOF in opposite Direction then the capillary can be coated with a cationic Surfactant or added to the buffer.
• Ex. Trimethylchlorosilane.• Coated capillary also available in
market.• This flow is toward the positively
charged electrode.

• Detectors similar to those used in GC,HPLC• majority of instruments have UV detectors
available. • Alternative detector modes include commercially
available fluorescence, laser induced fluorescence, conductivity and indirect detection.
• The mass spectrometers is frequently used to give structural information on the resolved peaks.
• Sensitive detectors are needed for small concentrations in CE

Capillary Gel Electrophoresis (CGE
Capillary Gel Electrophoresis (CGE) is the adaptation of traditional gel electrophoresis into the capillary .CGE uses separation based on the difference in solute size as a particle migrate through the gel.Gels prevent the capillary walls from absorbing then solute
Capillary Isoelectric Focusing (CIEF)
Capillary Isoelectric Focusing (CIEF) is a technique commonly used to separate peptides and proteinsThese molecule are called zwitterionic compounds.So, each molecule has a specific isoelectric point (pI).If pH = pI then molecule become a neutral.

Capillary Isotachophoresis (CITP)
• Capillary Isotachophoresis (CITP) is a focusing technique based on the migration of the sample components between leading and terminating electrolytes.
• Micellar Electrokinetic Capillary Chromatography
• MEKC is a separation technique that is based on solutes partitioning between micelles and the solvent
• Without micelles neutral molecule will migrate with the electroosmotic flow and no separation occurs.
• The aggregates have polar negatively charged surfaces and are attracted to the positively charged anode.
