Electroosmotic Flow http://www.electrokinetic.co.uk/images/tech1.gif
Movement of Analyte • Analyte • ν = µ E • ν = velocity µ = electrophoretic mobility E = Electric field • Electrophoretic mobility • µ = q/[6πηr] • q = charge η = solution viscosity r = radius • Electroosmotic flow • νEOF = [ε/4πη]ζE • ε = dielectric Constant ζ = Zeta potential • Flow of migration • ν = [(μEO + μe)V]/L • V = potential L = length of capillary Forensic Science International 77 (1996) 211 - 229
Injection of Sample Current Analytical Chemistry. 2005, 1 http://www.calstatela.edu/dept/chem/gomez/pubs-pdf/flow-injection.pdf
Injection of Sample • Injection is difficult due to sample size • Electrokinetic Injection • Differs by analyte • Hydrodynamic • Many parameters Anal. Chem., 1997, 69 (15), pp 2952–2954

Capillary Zone Electrophoresis • Separated by mass to charge ratio • Based on Electroosmotic Flow • Detectors: • UV Detector – Beer’s Law • Laser Fluorescence – Deriv. • MS - electrospray • Chemiluminescence • Diode Array Detector • Indirect • Refractive Index • Compare with HPLC and GC • Neutral Compounds • Chiral Compounds
Increasing Path Length http://www.chem.agilent.com/Library/technicaloverviews/Public/5989-9808EN.pdf
MicellarElectrokinetic Chromatography UV Neutral compounds Comprable to HPLC
Capillary Electrochromatography Packed column with no pressure applied, only electroosmotic pressure.
Capillary Gel Electrophoresis • Crosslinked vs. non crosslinked • DNA sequencing • Protein analysis • Chirality possible • EOF less desirable

Capillary Isoelectric Focusing http://www.targetdiscovery.com/~tdidocs/App_Note_5_200405.pdf
Capillary Isoelectric Focusing • pH gradient • Sample focusing and detection • Movement of gradient towards the detector • Zone broadening • Not useful for chiral compounds
Capillary Isotachophoresis • Two buffers form ionic zones • Anions and Cations seperately • Neutral compounds • Used for concentration • EOF less desirable

HPLC Analysis of Heroin (SPE) Fig. 2. (a) Representative total ion chromatograms of all quantifiable analytes spiked at LLQ level in human plasma (5 ng/mL). The intensity of the deuterated analytes was above 2500 [cps]. (b) Representative total ion chromatograms of random chosen patient’ plasma sample. (c) Total ion chromatogram of a plasma sample of a non-drug using volunteer. (A) M3G and M3G-d3; (B) morphine and morphine-d3; (C) M6G; (D) 6-MAM; (E) heroin and heroin-d6; (F) = methadone and methadone-d9; (G) EMDP; (H) cocaine; (I) benzoylecgonine.
