Non-aqueous electrophoresis integrated with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry on a thiol-ene polymer-based microchip device. Anal Bioanal Chem 2021; 413:4195-4205.

Abstract
Non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) on microfluidic chips is still a comparatively little explored area, despite the inherent advantages of this technique and its application potential for, in particular, lipophilic compounds. A main reason is probably the fact that implementation of NACE on microchips largely precluded the use of polymeric substrate materials. Here, we report non-aqueous electrophoresis on a thiol-ene-based microfluidic chip coupled to mass spectrometry via an on-chip ESI interface. Microchips with an integrated ESI emitter were fabricated using a double-molding approach. The durability of thiol-ene, when exposed to different organic solvents, was investigated with respect to swelling and decomposition of the polymer. Thiol-ene exhibited good stability against organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, N-methylformamide, and formamide, which allows for a wide range of background electrolyte compositions. The integrated ESI emitter provided a stable spray with RSD% of the ESI signal ≤8%. Separation efficiency of the developed microchip electrophoresis system in different non-aqueous buffer solutions was tested with a mixture of several drugs of abuse. Ethanol- and methanol-based buffers provided comparable high theoretical plate numbers (≈ 6.6 × 104-1.6 × 105 m-1) with ethanol exhibiting the best separation efficiency. Direct coupling of non-aqueous electrophoresis to mass spectrometry allowed for fast analysis of hydrophobic compounds in the range of 0.1-5 μg mL-1 and 0.2-10 μg mL-1 and very good sensitivities (LOD ≈ 0.06-0.28 μg mL-1; LOQ ≈ 0.20-0.90 μg mL-1). The novel combination of non-aqueous CE on a microfluidic thiol-ene device and ESI-MS provides a mass-producible and highly versatile system for the analysis of, in particular, lipophilic compounds in a wide range of organic solvents. This offers promising potential for future applications in forensic, clinical, and environmental analysis. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
In this review we introduce the advantages and limitations of electromigrative separation techniques in forensic toxicology. We thus present a summary of illustrative studies and our own experience in the field together with established methods from the German Federal Criminal Police Office rather than a complete survey. We focus on the analytical aspects of analytes' physicochemical characteristics (e.g. polarity, stereoisomers) and analytical challenges including matrix tolerance, separation from compounds present in large excess, sample volumes, and orthogonality. For these aspects we want to reveal the specific advantages over more traditional methods. Both detailed studies and profiling and screening studies are taken into account. Care was taken to nearly exclusively document well-validated methods outstanding for the analytical challenge discussed. Special attention was paid to aspects exclusive to electromigrative separation techniques, including the use of the mobility axis, the potential for on-site instrumentation, and the capillary format for immunoassays. The review concludes with an introductory guide to method development for different separation modes, presenting typical buffer systems as starting points for different analyte classes. The objective of this review is to provide an orientation for users in separation science considering using capillary electrophoresis in their laboratory in the future.

Abstract
A survey of the literature on non-aqueous capillary zone electrophoresis leaves one with the impression of a prevailing notion that non-aqueous conditions are principally more favorable than conventional aqueous media. Specifically, the application of organic solvents in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is believed to provide the general advantages of superior separation efficiency, higher applicable electric field strength, and shorter analysis time. These advantages, however, are often claimed without providing any experimental evidence, or based on rather uncritical comparisons of limited sets of arbitrarily selected separation results. Therefore, the performance characteristics of non-aqueous vs. aqueous CZE certainly deserve closer scrutiny. The primary intention of Part II of this review is to give a critical survey of the literature on non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) that has emerged over the last five years. Emphasis is mainly placed on those studies that are concerned with the aspects of plate height, plate number, and the crucial mechanisms contributing to zone broadening, both in organic and aqueous conditions. To facilitate a deeper understanding, this treatment covers also the theoretical fundamentals of peak dispersion phenomena arising from wall adsorption; concentration overload (electromigration dispersion); longitudinal diffusion; and thermal gradients. Theoretically achievable plate numbers are discussed, both under limiting (at zero ionic strength) and application-relevant conditions (at finite ionic strength). In addition, the impact of the superimposed electroosmotic flow contributions to overall CZE performance is addressed, both for aqueous and non-aqueous media. It was concluded that for peak dispersion due to wall adsorption and due to concentration overload (electromigration dispersion, leading to peak triangulation) no general conjunction with the solvent can be deduced. This is in contrast to longitudinal diffusion: the plate height (and the plate number) obtainable under limiting conditions (at zero ionic strength) has the same ultimate value for all solvents. However, in background electrolytes with finite ionic strength, the maximum reachable plate number depends on the solvent, and in water it is higher than in the most commonly used organic solvents: methanol and acetonitrile. Thermal peak broadening is also larger in the organic solvents if compared to aqueous solutions under comparable conditions. However, its influence on the plate height is negligible under conditions established with commercial instrumentation. From the laws of electric and thermal conductance, it follows that no general conclusion can be drawn that with organic solvents higher field strength can be applied and shorter analysis time can be reached; the contrary is more evident: under comparable conditions aqueous solutions lead to more favorable results. This comprehensive analysis provides strong evidence that the broadly held notion of non-aqueous CZE being principally superior to aqueous CZE is a myth rather than a fact. However, several studies in which the employment of non-aqueous conditions has been instrumental to solve challenging analytical problems demonstrate that the intelligent use of non-aqueous CE has and will continue having its place in modern separation science.

Abstract
Non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) is an attractive CE mode, in which water solvent of the background electrolyte (BGE) is replaced by organic solvent or by a mixture of organic solvents. This substitution alters several parameters, such as the pKa, permittivity, viscosity, zeta potential, and conductivity, resulting in a modification of CE separation performance (i.e., selectivity and/or efficiency). In addition, the use of NACE is particularly well adapted to ESI-MS due to the high volatility of solvents and the low currents that are generated. Organic solvents reduce the number of side electrochemical reactions at the ESI tip, thereby allowing the stabilization of the ESI current and a decrease in background noise. All these features make NACE an interesting alternative to the aqueous capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) mode, especially in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) detection. The aim of this work was to evaluate the use of NACE coupled to negative ESI-MS for the analysis of acidic compounds with two available CE-MS interfaces (sheath liquid and sheathless). First, NACE was compared to aqueous CZE for the analysis of several pharmaceutical acidic compounds (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, NSAIDs). Then, the separation performance and the sensitivity achieved by both interfaces were evaluated, as were the impact of the BGE and the sample composition. Finally, analyses of glucuronides in urine samples subjected to a minimal sample pre-treatment ("dilute-and-shoot") were performed by NACE-ESI-MS, and the matrix effect was evaluated. A 20- to 100-fold improvement in sensitivity was achieved using the NACE mode in combination with the sheathless interface and no matrix effect was observed regardless of the interfaces.

Abstract
A rapid and practical capillary electrophoresis (CE) method was developed for the determination of ginsenoside Rg1, Re and Rb1 in ginseng samples. Rg1, Re and Rb1 were extracted by ultrasonication with water-saturated n-butanol. The CE method was optimized with a running buffer of 20 mM borate in 30% MeOH (pH 9.67), and an applied separation voltage of +18 kV over a capillary of 50 μm i.d. × 50 cm (41.5 cm to the detector window), which gave a baseline separation of Rg1, Re and Rb1 within ca. 5 min. Under the detection at 203 nm, the method gave limits of quantification (S/N = 10) at about 5.2-7.3 μg ml-1 for Rg1, Re and Rb1, whereas the overall recoveries were larger than 83.0%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to measure three different kinds of ginseng samples (10 real samples) and the contents of Rg1, Re and Rb1 in actual samples were obtained and evaluated.

Abstract
A simple, fast, and sensitive liquid-liquid extraction method followed by nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (LLE/NACE) was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of four antidepressants (fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram and paroxetine) in human plasma. Several experimental separation conditions using aqueous and nonaqueous media separation were tested by varying the electrolyte pH value (for aqueous medium) and the ionic strength concentration considering the similar mobility of the compounds. High-resolution separation was achieved with a mixture of 1.25 mol L(-1) of phosphoric acid in acetonitrile. The quantification limits of the LLE/CE method varied between 15 and 30 ng mL(-1), with a relative standard deviation (RSD) lower than 10.3%. The method was successfully applied in therapeutic drug monitoring and should be employed in the evaluation of plasma levels in urgent toxicological analysis.

Abstract
Zein proteins are a complex mixture of polypetides that belong to the alcohol-soluble storage proteins group (prolamines) in corn. These proteins constitute about 50-60% of the total endosperm protein and are classified in different groups on the basis of differences in their solubility and sequence. Among them, zein proteins are considered the majority group showing a high tendency to aggregate what makes their analysis by any analytical method very difficult. Thus, CZE of these proteins requires the use of very complex BGEs noncompatible with online ESI-MS analysis. The aim of this work was to find a new BGE for the CZE separation of zein protein fully compatible with ESI-MS while providing further light on the complex CZE separation of aggregatable proteins. Thus, it is demonstrated in this work that efficient and reproducible CZE separations of zein proteins can be achieved by using a BGE composed of water, ACN, formic acid and ammonium hydroxide. Besides, it is shown that zein analysis is significantly improved by including the effect of an ammonium gradient during their separation. It is experimentally verified that the ammonium gradient can easily be achieved in CZE by either working with a sample zone with a low concentration of ammonium and a BGE with a high concentration, or conversely, working with a sample zone with high ammonium concentration and a BGE with low concentration of ammonium, giving rise in both cases to a significant improvement in the CZE separation of these proteins. It is demonstrated that this procedure can give rise to efficiency improvements of up to 20-fold in the CZE separation of zein proteins. Under optimized conditions, 20 proteins could be separated with average efficiencies higher than 400 000 theoretical plates/m. Some possible explanations of this effect are discussed including stacking, protein-capillary wall adsorption, protein solubility and protein-salt interactions.

Abstract
The major methodological developments in CE related to inorganic analysis are overviewed. This is an update to a previous review article by the author (Timerbaev, A. R., Electrophoresis 2004, 25, 4008-4031) and it covers the review work and innovative research papers published between January 2004 and the first part of 2006. As was underlined in that review, a growing interest of analytical community in providing elemental speciation information found a sound response of the CE method developers. Presently, almost every second research paper in the field of interest deals with element species analysis, the use of inductively coupled plasma MS detection and biochemical applications being the topics of utmost research efforts. On the other hand, advances in general methodology traditionally centered on a CE system modernization for improvements in sensitivity and separation selectivity have attracted less attention over the review period. While there is no indication that inorganic ion applications would surpass by the developmental rate the more matured analysis of organic analytes, CE can now be seen as an analytical technique to be before long customary in a number of inorganic analysis arenas.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs), as separation media, have made significant contributions in the past decades in advancing research in gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography (LC), and capillary electrophoresis (CE). This review, covering reports published from the mid 1980s to early 2007, shows how ILs have been used so far in separation science, originally primarily as GC stationary phases and later as mobile phase additives (both millimolar and major percent levels) for LC and CE. Representative GC and LC chromatograms as well as CE electropherograms are shown. In addition, the very recent findings on the development of ionic liquids with surfactant properties and its applications for chiral and achiral analysis are discussed.

Abstract
The mathematical models of migration and dispersion in capillary zone electrophoresis of small molecules form a sound basis for separation strategies of complex mixtures. It turned out that the key property is the effective mobility of the sample ions. To tune resolution parameters such as pH, complexation constants and ionic strength are widely used; temperature however is not although mobilities and pK(a) values depend in a more or less degree on temperature. From the temperature dependences of pK(a) values of a number of compounds listed in the literature a general rule can be derived: for carboxylic and inorganic acids dpK(a)/dT values are very small and the pK(a) values change less than +/-0.05 units/10K. Thermodynamically speaking, these compounds exhibit dissociation enthalpies close to zero. Phenols and amines, on the other hand, have systematically larger dpK(a)/dT values of about -0.1 to -0.2 units per 10K (the results of dissociation enthalpies of 20-70 kJ/mole). Based on this classification, a distinction can be made between different situations in capillary electrophoresis: (i) selectivity changes with temperature are largely due to the temperature dependence of the pK(a) of the buffering compound in the background electrolyte, (ii) selectivity changes mainly result from the temperature dependence of the pK(a) of the sample ions, and (iii) temperature effects on the pK(a) values of both, sample and buffer play a role. This work demonstrates such effects on selectivity in capillary electrophoresis highlighting the fact that in some instances temperature can be used to fine-tune separations.

Abstract
The use of pure nonaqueous solvents in capillary electrophoresis (CE) can alter the separation selectivity and enhance the solubility of hydrophobic compounds and enables the use of higher voltages. However, control of the electro-osmotic flow (EOF) is essential. In this work, we report the use of self-assembled coatings for EOF modification and elimination of analyte adsorptions onto silica capillaries in pure formamide. Bilayer capillary coatings derived from the double chain cationic surfactant dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide (2C18DAB) reverses the EOF in buffers such as acetate, formate, and phosphate. Reversed EOF of >1.1 × 10–4 cm2/Vs enables the separation of the pharmaceutical drugs propranolol, metoprolol, chloroquine, and chloropheniramine in less than 5 min with efficiencies of 0.2–0.5 million plates/m (66 000 to 165 000 plates). Chemical and physical factors affecting the coating stability and their influence on separation speed and efficiency of the cationic drugs in formamide are also investigated.Key words: capillary electrophoresis, cationic surfactants, electro-osmotic flow, formamide, nonaqueous solvents.

Abstract
A practical NACE method was developed for simultaneous determination of three adenosine monophosphate (AMP) isomers. Separation of three AMP isomers was achieved using 200 mM Tris/H(3)BO(3) in acetontrile/water (2:1 v/v) at pH* 10.0 as the running buffer and +25 kV as the applied voltage over a bare fused-silica capillary of 50 microm id x 375 microm od x 54.5 cm (46 cm to the detector window). At 260 nm, the calibration curves were linear in the range of 1-100 microg/mL. The detection limits were less than 0.70 microg/mL. The recovery ranged from 94.5 to 106.4%. The intraday RSDs of the migration times were between 2.1 and 3.0%. The developed NACE method has been successfully applied for the determination of three AMP isomers in the real samples of biomimicking prebiotic synthesis reaction between N-(O,O-diisopropyl) phosphoryl amino acid and adenosine.

Abstract
The present work demonstrates the importance of the ionic composition in the BGE for enantioseparation. (-)-2,3:4,6-di-O-Isopropylidene-2-keto-L-gulonic acid ((-)-DIKGA) has been used as the chiral selector in methanolic and ethanolic BGEs. The influence of added alkali metal hydroxides on the EOF and the chiral separation of amines (atenolol, isoprenaline, pindolol and propranolol) have been studied. The ion-pair formation constants in ethanol were determined by precision conductometry for the enantiomers of pindolol with (-)-DIKGA, for Li(+), Na(+) and Cs(+) with (-)-DIKGA, and also for the corresponding alkali metal hydroxides. The effective mobilities and the enantiomeric mobility differences were affected by the type of alkali metal hydroxide (LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH or CsOH) added to the BGE. The effective mobility and mobility difference were increased with decrease in solvated radius of the alkali metal cation. These differences could partly be correlated to the ion-pair formation constants of the alkali metal cations with the chiral selector, affecting the equilibrium concentration of the free selector. The electroosmosis was also affected by the alkali metal hydroxide added to the BGE. The cathodic electroosmosis decreased with decreasing solvated radius of the alkali metal cation added to the BGE. Interestingly, the cathodic EOF was even reversed, i.e. became anodic in the ethanolic BGEs containing KOH, RbOH or CsOH and the methanolic ones with RbOH and CsOH.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the effects of both chemical and instrumental parameters on the separation of beta-agonists (clenbuterol (CLE), salbutamol (SAL) and terbutaline (TER)) by non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) method. Due to the number of parameters involved and their interactions, factorial experimental designs (EDs) at two levels was applied to investigate the influence of experimental factors (ionic strength of the background electrolyte (BGE), organic solvent, injection time, voltage and temperature) in sets of several CE responses (resolution, (RS), number of theoretical plate (N), tailing factor (TF) and migration time (tm)). As a compromise between the four responses, the optimum condition was obtained in 18 mM ammonium acetate in methanol (MeOH):acetonitrile (ACN):glacial acetic acid (66:33:1%, v/v/v) using an injection time of 4 s, the voltage and the temperature of 28 kV and 24 degrees C, respectively. The proposed NACE permitted the baseline separation of the three beta-agonists within 10.5 min with good repeatability (%RSD < 3.5%) and linearity (r2 > 0.99). The developed method was applicable for the analysis of the beta-agonists in syrup and tablets and the NACE condition was compatible with a mass spectrometer detector.

Abstract
This study presents the use of quaternary ammonium bromides as additives in N-methylformamide (NMF) for the separation and quantification of chelating agents as copper complexes by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). The new quaternary ammonium bromides were synthesized in our laboratory and used for the first time for CZE applications performed in NMF media. The methods were developed and optimized for determination of six chelating agents (trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (CDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N',N'-triacetic acid (HEDTA), nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and triethylenetetraaminehexaacetic acid (TTHA)) as copper complexes. Among the tested electrolyte additives in NMF media (pH(app) 10.2) dimethyldioctylammonium bromide (DMDOAB), dimethyldinonylammonium bromide (DMDNAB) and dimethyldidecylammonium bromide (DMDDAB), at a concentration of 20 mmol L(-1) improved the separation of the copper complexes. The optimized methods require only 12 min for one analysis, and the detection limits for copper complexes of DMDNAB, the best-performing additive, were < or =24 micromol L(-1). Relative standard deviations (R.S.D.) for migration times were < or =2.5, < or =2.1, < or =3.1% and for peak areas, < or =3.1, < or =3.0, < or =3.2% for DMDOAB, DMDNAB and DMDDAB used as additives, respectively. All three methods were successfully applied to the analysis of natural and wastewater samples. No matrix effects from these samples were observed. The interaction between quaternary ammonium bromides and copper complexes is discussed.

Abstract
It is shown that organo-aqueous separation buffers show much promise when used in capillary electrophoresis separations with photothermal (thermal lens) detection systems. Acetonitrile-water and methanol-water mixtures were selected, as conventionally used in capillary electrophoresis. It is shown that, despite more sophisticated experimental conditions (significant heat outflow from the capillary body) and peak detection, the theoretical ratio of the thermal lens signal for a binary mixture to the thermal lens signal for an aqueous solution (or the corresponding ratio obtained experimentally under bulk batch conditions) can be used to predict the sensitivity of thermal lens detection in capillary electrophoresis. The limits of detection for 2-, 3-, and 4-nitrophenols selected as model compounds in 70% v/v acetonitrile separation buffers are 1 x 10(-6) M, 1 x 10(-6) M and 3 x 10(-7) M, respectively, and are therefore decreased by a factor of six compared to thermal lens detection in aqueous separation buffers. The overall increase in the thermal lens detection sensitivity in a 100% ACN buffer is a factor of 13.

Abstract
A practical method for residue analysis of 2,4-D, dicamba and 2,4,5-T in baked tobacco leaves has been developed using nonaqueous CE (NACE). The herbicide residues of 2,4-D, dicamba and 2,4,5-T in tobaccos were extracted by ultrasonication with ethyl acetate, followed by a cleanup procedure with gel permeation chromatography. The separation of 2,4-D, dicamba and 2,4,5-T by NACE was optimized based on orthogonal experiment design with four factors at three levels. The optimal NACE condition was established with the running buffer of 40.0 mmol/L ammonium acetate in 90% CH3CN (apparent pH 10.2), and the applied voltage of -25 kV over a capillary of 50 microm id x 46 cm (37.5 cm to the detector window), which gave a baseline separation of 2,4-D, dicamba and 2,4,5-T within 15 min. The LOD were ca. 0.4-0.6 microg/mL for the three herbicides, whereas the overall recovery ranged from 80.8 to 84.1%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to measure 300 real tobacco samples, and the residue profiles of the three herbicides in tobacco samples were obtained and evaluated.

Abstract
A discussion is given about the concepts of the ion mobility, the analyte property which governs migration and thus separation selectivity in CE. It deals with small organic and inorganic ions, not with charged polymers or large particles like colloids. The discussion is directed to two main concepts. (i) The first is based on physico-chemistry of ion conductance in solution, and distinguishes three types of mobility. The absolute mobility is the limiting mobility at zero ionic strength; it depends on the solvent and the temperature. It is obtained by extrapolation of the actual mobilities, those of the fully charged particles at finite ion concentration. The observed reduction of the absolute mobility with ionic concentration is related to an ion cloud, and is formulated by the established theories of ion conductance. It explains the actual mobility as function of (beside other factors) the ionic strength, the viscosity and relative permittivity of the solvent, the temperature, the relaxation time of solvent polarisation and the distance of closest approach between ion and counterion. The effective mobility, finally, is the mobility when association and dissociation equilibria play a role. Most important are acid-base reactions, but complexation, ion pairing and homo- and heteroconjugation were considered as well. (ii) The second approach treats mobility data with different mathematical methods, and formulates their dependence on variables like solvent composition with appropriate algorithms. These empirical methods mainly include least squares and neural network-based methods. The least square methods ranges from the simplest model, which uses only the molecular weight of the analyte, to more complicated model requiring three-dimensional structural descriptors of the solutes. Neural networks have been applied to model the mobility using different input variables and various architectures. Work comparing the accuracy of least squares and neural network methods was discussed; the results showed that the neural network method leads to a more accurate mobility calculation. However, the least squares methods could give some information to the factors affecting the mobility of the analytes. The resulting methods allow the prediction of mobilities under different experimental conditions with certain accuracy. It has been shown that using such models, it is possible to predict mobility of analytes after training the models by a minimum number of data to speed up the method development stage.
