Abstract
A novel near-infrared (NIR) cyanine 1-(epsilon-succinimidyl-hexanoate)-1'-methyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-indocarbocyanine-5,5'-disulfonate potassium (MeCy5-OSu) has been developed in our laboratory. Simultaneous determination of MeCy5-OSu-derivatized polyamines spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd), cadaverine (Cad), and putrescine (Put) based on the separation by CE combined with diode LIF detection has been accomplished. The highest derivatization efficiency was achieved in 0.2 mol/L borate buffer (pH 8.8) for 20 min at 25 degrees C. Polyamine derivatives were separated within 14 min in the phosphate running buffer (pH 3) containing 50 mmol/L phosphoric acid, 40 mmol/L SDS, and 35% methanol v/v. Linearity of response was obtained in the range of 10-200 nmol/L. The detection limits (S/N = 3) for Spm, Spd, Cad, and Put were 0.8, 1, 3, and 2 nmol/L, respectively. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of polyamines in erythrocytes of two healthy persons and one cancer patient. Average recoveries for erythrocyte samples were 93.6-106% and coefficients of variation ranged from 1.8 to 5.4%. The analysis of polyamines in erythrocytes can be used for studying the relationship between their changes and the carcinogenesis process involved in erythrocytes.

Abstract
The formation of D-amino acids (D-aa's) in many fermented foods depends, among other factors, on the particular fermentation conditions, the action and autolysis of the microorganisms involved. In this sense, the analysis of chiral amino acids is an interesting analytical strategy for food scientists, since these compounds can be used as bacterial markers and can help, e.g., to detect adulterations, microbiological contaminations, etc. In this work, a fast and sensitive method based on MEKC-LIF has been developed to analyze and quantitate L-amino acid (L-aa) and D-aa in vinegars. The chiral MEKC-LIF procedure uses 100 mM sodium tetraborate, 30 mM SDS, and 20 mM beta-CD at pH 9.7 as running buffer, obtaining a good separation of the main vinegar L-/D-aa previously derivatized with fluorescein isothiocianate. Namely, L/D proline, alanine, arginine, glutamic, and aspartic acid, plus the nonchiral amino acid gamma-aminobutyric acid are separated in less than 20 min with high efficiency (up to 720,000 plates/m) and good sensitivity (LODs lower than 16.6 nM were achieved). Several D-aa's were detected and quantified in balsamic, sherry, white wine, and cider vinegars using this MEKC-LIF procedure, observing interesting differences in their L-aa and D-aa profiles and contents.

Abstract
A hydrophilic polymer, poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), was employed for suppressing the electroosmotic flow (EOF). A capillary was filled with aqueous PVP solution for coating the capillary wall with PVP; the PVP solution was then replaced by a migration buffer solution containing no PVP. Three types of PVP with different molecular weights were examined. The EOF was suppressed more effectively as the molecular weight of PVP increased. The EOF in the coated capillary was approximately 10-fold smaller than that of a bare capillary and was constant in the pH range of 6-8. The suppressed EOF was stable even when no PVP was added to the migration buffer. However, the EOF increased significantly when sodium dodecyl sulfate was added into the migration buffer. The method was applied for determining the electrophoretic mobilities of inorganic anions that have negative electrophoretic mobilities larger than the electroosmotic mobility of the bare capillary. A novel method for determining the electrophoretic mobilities was proposed based on the linear relationship between electric current and electrophoretic mobility. The electrophoretic mobility was proportional to the electric current. Therefore, the intercept of the regression equation represents the electrophoretic mobility at room temperature. The electrophoretic mobilities were in good agreement with the absolute electrophoretic mobilities.

Abstract
The application of an ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diode (LED) to on-line sample concentration/fluorescence detection in capillary electrophoresis (CE) is described. The utility of a UV-LED (peak emission wavelength at 380 nm, approximately 2 mW) for fluorescence detection was demonstrated by examining both a naturally fluorescent (riboflavin) compound and a nonfluorescent compound (tryptophan), respectively. The detection limit for riboflavin was determined to be 0.2 ppm by the normal MEKC mode, which was improved to 3-7 ppb when dynamic pH-junction technique was applied. On the other hand, the detection limit of the tryptophan derivative was determined to be 1.5 ppm using the MEKC mode, which was improved to 3 ppb when the sweeping-MEKC mode was applied. In an analysis of an actual sample, the concentrations of riboflavin in beer, and tryptophan in urine and milk samples were determined, respectively.

Abstract
A straightforward and sensitive method has been developed for the analysis of phosphorus-containing amino acid herbicides (glufosinate and aminomethylphosphonic acid, the major metabolite of glyphosate) in soil samples. For this purpose, the analytical features of two indocyanine fluorescent dyes, sulfoindocyanine succinimidyl ester (Cy5) and 1-ethyl-1-[5-(N-succinimidyl-oxycarbonyl)pentyl]-3,3,3,3-tetramethyl-indodicarbocyanine chloride, as labeling reagents for the determination of these herbicides by CZE with diode LIF detection were investigated. Practical aspects related to the labeling chemistry and CZE separation showed that the two probes behave similarly, Cy5 being the best choice for the determination of these herbicides on account of its higher sensitivity. The optimum procedure includes a derivatization step of the pesticides at 25 degrees C for 30 min and direct injection to CZE analysis, which is conducted within about 14 min using ACN in the running buffer. The lowest detectable analyte concentration ranged from 0.025 to 0.18 microg/L with a precision of 3.6-5.4%. These results indicate that indocyanine fluorescence dyes are useful as rapid and sensitive labels for the determination of these herbicides when compared with typical fluorescein dyes such as FITC and 5-(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-ylamino) fluorescein, because they provide faster labeling reactions even at room temperature and the excess of reagent practically does not interfere the determination. Finally, the Cy5 method was successfully applied to soil samples without a preliminary clean-up procedure, and the herbicides were measured without any interference from coexisting substances. The recoveries of these compounds in these samples at fortification levels of 100-500 ng/g were 90-93%.

Abstract
An on-column immunological reaction was employed to achieve simple and rapid analysis in an immunoassay based on capillary electrophoresis using semiconductor laser-induced fluorescence detection. Human serum albumin (HSA) labeled with sulfoindocyanine succinimidyl ester (Cy5), a fluorescent compound with an absorption maximum at 649 nm, was used as a fluorescent probe for the immunoassay. In a binding assay, with anti-HSA as the analyte molecule, Cy5-HSA was injected in a capillary column followed by the injection of anti-HSA so as to form individual zones. By applying a potential, the anti-HSA reacted with Cy5-HSA at the boundary between Cy5-HSA and anti-HSA zones, since anti-HSA has a higher electrophoretic mobility than Cy5-HSA. Furthermore, the on-column method enhances the sensitivity by injecting a large volume of the sample. Free Cy5-HSA and its immunocomplex with anti-HSA were separated with less degradation in resolution than that predicted from the injection time of anti-HSA, even when the injection time for anti-HSA was increased. The ratio of the peak area of the complex to that of the total Cy5-HSA (free Cy5-HSA and the complex) increased in proportion to the injection time of anti-HSA. As a result, the detection limit was improved up to eight-fold (the concentration detection limit, 0.007 mg mL(-1), for an injection time of 240 s, compared to that obtained using an off-column sample preparation. Furthermore, the on-column reaction method was applicable to an immunoassay to determine native HSA, in which native HSA and Cy5-HSA react with anti-HSA stepwise. The detection limit in the stepwise reaction immunoassay was 0.005 mg mL(-1), which is 14 times lower than that in an off-column method, with the analysis time less than 10 min as the result of increasing the injection time of native HSA. In addition, the present on-column immunoassay was applied to the sample containing a high concentration of salts for investigating the effect of salts in the sample solution.

Abstract
Tryptophan (Trp) derivatives were selectively separated from 24 kinds of amino acid mixture solutions. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) with UV detection using the described pretreatment system was able to separate and determine 4 kinds of Trp derivatives: 5-hydroxy L-tryptophan, 5-methyl L-tryptophan, 1-methyl L-tryptophan and L-tryptophan. The pretreatment system used a combination of a homogeneous liquid-liquid extraction and a sweeping method, the two are different kinds of powerful preconcentration/separation methods. Trp derivatives were thus separated by two different separation systems. First, these derivatives were selectively extracted at 57-100% by a homogeneous liquid-liquid extraction; secondly, they were respectively separated by micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with a sweeping effect. The detection limits following complete separation of the Trp derivatives were 10(-8) mol l(-1) levels, respectively. The proposed method provided a more than 10-fold the improvement in sensitivity compared with fluorescence labeling/fluorophotometric analysis; the proposed method was also applied to the component analysis of nutritious medicine.

Abstract
The separation of 17 "common" underivatized amino acids was attempted by open tubular capillary electrochromatography (OT-CEC) in fused-silica capillaries coated with Rh(III) tetrakis(phenoxyphenyl)porphyrinate (Rh(III)TPP(m-OPh)4OAc) using sodium phosphate and Tris-phosphate buffers as background electrolytes (BGEs). The OT-CEC separation of amino acids was compared with that obtained by capillary zone electrophoresis in bare fused-silica capillaries using the same BGEs. The amino acids were not derivatized and the UV-absorption detection was set at 200 nm. Depending on the experimental conditions at least 15 amino acids were separated. The best separations were obtained in a Rh(III)TPP(m-OPh)4OAc-coated capillary in 50 mM Tris-100 mM phosphate buffer at pH 2.25. Separation of the critical triplet Val-Ile-Leu was always at least indicated being better at higher BGE concentrations. Regarding the sensitivity of the method, lower concentration limits of detection (LODs) in the coated capillary were obtained for Thr, Gly, Tyr, and Val; the other amino acids exhibited lower LODs in the uncoated capillary. The separation of acidic amino acids was not achieved.

Abstract
This work presents a model behind the operation of a flow-through sampling chip and its application for immunoseparation, as well as its integration with a wash/elution bed for protein purification, concentration, and detection. This device used hydrodynamic pressure to drive the sample flow, and a gating voltage was applied to the electrophoretic channel on the microchip to control the sample loading for the separation and to inhibit sample leakage. The deduced model indicates that the critical gating voltage (VC) that is defined as the minimum gating voltage applied to the microchip for sampling is a function of the pump flow rate, the configuration of the microchannel on the chip, and the electroosmosis of the buffer solution. It was found that the theoretical V(C) values calculated from the measured electroosmotic mobilities and flow split ratios were comparable to those experimentally obtained from two microchips with different sampling channel sizes. This had an error percentage ranging from 1 to 20%. Because the hydrodynamic flow is insensitive to electrophoretic mobility, this electrophoresis-based microchip device was free of injection bias due to different ionic strength and electrophoretic mobility in the sample. Additionally, the usefulness of this device was demonstrated for the study of affinity interactions. Mixtures of Cy5-labeled bovine serum albumin (Cy5-BSA) and anti-BSA in various proportions were introduced into the microchip via a syringe pump, and the immunocomplex was electrophoretically separated from the free Cy5-BSA on the microchip. Based on the relative intensity of the free and complex BSA, the binding constant of BSA and anti-BSA was estimated as 3.3 x 10(7) M(-1). Furthermore, a C18 microcartridge (20 microL) was connected to the hydrodynamic inlet of the microchip. Using this device, the wash/elution step can be integrated on-line with the electrophoretic separation and detection on the microchip. Results show that the calibration curve of Cy5-BSA obtained from this integrated device has an R2 value greater than 0.99 and a minimum of quantitation at approximately 10 ng. This direct sampling method is another means of subfractionation, resulting in a relatively greater concentration factor than the average concentration of the whole fraction. Moreover, the electrical field-free bed ensures that the protein interaction will not be affected by the electric field during the wash/elution step.

Abstract
In this work a new method to detect the existence of chiral amino acids in orange juice is presented. The method employs beta-cyclodextrins and micellar electrokinetic chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence (MEKC-LIF) to separate and detect L- and D-amino acids (L-aa and D-aa) previously derivatized with fluorescein isothiocianate (FITC). A systematic optimization of the chiral-MEKC conditions is done bringing about in less than 20 min a good separation of the main amino acids found in orange juice (i.e., Pro, Asp, Ser, Asn, Glu, Ala, Arg, and the nonchiral GABA, i.e., gamma-aminobutyric acid). Using this procedure, the analysis time reproducibility for the 15 standard compounds (L-aa, D-aa, and GABA) has been determined to be better than 0.2% (n = 5) for the same day and better than 0.7% (n = 15) for three different days. Corrected peak area reproducibility is somewhat lower, providing values better than 3.3% (n = 5) for the same day and 6.9% (n = 15) for three different days. The limit of detection using this procedure was determined to be 0.86 attomoles for L-Arg. The optimized FITC derivatization method allows the easy and straightforward detection of amino acids in orange concentrates and juices (i.e., only centrifugation of diluted samples for 5 min is needed prior to their derivatization). D-Ala, D-Asp, D-Arg, and D-Glu were determined in orange juices and orange concentrates from different geographical origins using this new method. Moreover, the effect of different temperature treatments (50, 92, and 150 degrees C) on the content of D-aa in orange juice was evaluated.

Abstract
Chiral separation of 20 pairs of amino acids derivatized with fluoresceine-5-isothiocyanate (FITC) by capillary electrophoresis and laser-induced fluorescence detection was studied using the mixture of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and sodium taurocholate (STC) as selector. Resolution was considerably superior to that obtained by using either beta-CD or STC alone. The molar ratio of beta-CD to STC of about 2:3 was found to be critical to achieve maximum separation. At this beta-CD-to-STC ratio, chiral separation occurred at really low total concentration of beta-CD and STC (<0.1 mM). Other impacting factors were investigated including the total concentration of beta-CD and STC, pH, and capillary conditioning procedure between two successive runs. Using a running buffer of 80 mM borate containing 20 mM beta-CD and 30 mM STC at pH 9.3, all of the 20 pairs of FITC-amino acid enantiomers were baseline resolved. The resolutions of the most pairs of the amino acid enantiomers (17 of 20) were higher than 3.0, only three pairs gave a resolution lower than 3.0 but higher than 1.90 (beta-phenylserine, pSer). The highest resolution reached 14.58 (Glu). Two derivatives of beta-CD, 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-CD (HP-beta-CD) and heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-CD (DM-beta-CD) were also explored. HP-beta-CD showed similar cooperative effect with STC, while DM-beta-CD together with STC led to poorer chiral separation.

Abstract
We describe the use of micellar electrokinetic chromatography with diode laser-induced fluorometry (MEKC-DLIF) as a tool to characterize a labeling reaction between sulfoindocyanine succinimidyl ester (Cy5), a cyanine fluorescent dye, and a model protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA). To decrease the influence of imprecise injection, methylene blue was added as an internal standard. Labeled BSA was completely separated from the unconjugated Cy5, and methylene blue under optimized conditions. A kinetic study of the reaction was performed by changing some parameters, such as reaction buffer pH, reaction buffer concentration and the initial concentration of BSA. A comparison between the current method and traditional methods was made.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis combined with semiconductor laser-induced fluorometry was applied to an immunoassay of human serum albumin. Human serum albumin was labeled with a fluorescent molecule (Cy5), which has an absorption maximum at 649 nm. The labeled albumin was purified by ultrafiltration in order to reduce signals, which are unreacted labeling reagent, product, and fragment products derived there from. After the purification, no signal for unreacted labeling reagent and fragment products was detectable in the electropherogram of the labeled albumin. The labeled albumin was then reacted with anti-albumin to form an immunocomplex, which was separated from the excess free albumin. The competitive immunoassay was used in the determination of human serum albumin in a controlled serum sample, using the labeled albumin. The obtained value was found to be 0.21 +/- 0.02 mg/ml, which is in good agreement with other known values.

Abstract
This survey gives an overview of recent derivatization protocols, starting from 1996, in combination with capillary electrophoresis (CE). Derivatization is mainly used for enhancing the detection sensitivity of CE, especially in combination with laser-induced fluorescence. Derivatization procedures are classified in tables in pre-, on- and postcapillary arrangements and, more specifically, arranged into functional groups being derivatized. The amine and reducing ends of saccharides are reported most frequently, but examples are also given for derivatization of thiols, hydroxyl, carboxylic, and carbonyl groups, and inorganic ions. Other reasons for derivatization concern indirect chiral separations, enhancing electrospray characteristics, or incorporation of a suitable charge into the analytes. Special attention is paid to the increasing field of research using on-line precapillary derivatization with CE and microdialysis for in vivo monitoring of neurotransmitter concentrations. The on-capillary derivatization can be divided in several approaches, such as the at-inlet, zone-passing and throughout method. The postcapillary mode is represented by gap designs, and membrane reactors, but especially the combination of separation, derivatization and detection on a chip is a new emerging field of research. This review, which can be seen as a sequel to our earlier reported review covering the years 1991-1995, gives an impression of current derivatization applications and highlights new developments in this field.

Abstract
This is an initial report to propose a novel approach in high-performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) for the direct detection of compounds without natural absorbance in the UV and visible spectral range, such as amino acids and carbohydrates. A refractometry detector with the 2 nl cell (Applied Systems, Minsk, Belarus) was employed to identify amino acids and carbohydrates without derivatization. The first results are provided on separation of seven free amino acids in the phosphate running buffer and three free carbohydrates in the borate-sodium dodecyl sulfate running buffer and detection by refractometer. Fused capillaries of 50 or 75 microm internal diameter and separation voltage (10-23 kV) were applied. Detection limits ranged typically from 10 to 100 fmol and the response was linear over two orders of magnitude for most of the amino acids and carbohydrates. The HPCE system demonstrated good long-term stability and reproducibility with a relative standard deviation, less than 5% for the migration time (n=10).

Abstract
The review summarizes the most recent developments in the field of enantioseparation of chiral drugs using capillary electromigration techniques. The basic principles of enantioseparations in CE are discussed. Recent developments in sample introduction, separation and detection in capillary electrophoresis and capillary electrochromatography are summarized. The applications are arbitrarily divided into the following three groups: (a) racemates and artificial mixtures of enantiomers, (b) drug forms and (c) chiral drugs and their metabolites in biological fluids. Among the various techniques involved the relatively new developments such as CEC in aqueous and nonaqueous buffers, on-line CE-MS coupling, etc. are emphasized.

Abstract
Chiral separation of amino acids and peptides by capillary electrophoresis (CE) is reviewed regarding the separation principles of different approaches, advantages and limitations, chiral recognition mechanisms and applications. The direct approach details various chiral selectors with an emphasis on cyclodextrins and their derivatives, antibiotics and chiral surfactants as the chiral selectors. The indirect approach deals with various chiral reagents applied for diastereomer formation and types of separation media such as micelles and polymeric pseudo-stationary phases. Many derivatization reagents used for high sensitivity detection of amino acids and peptides are also discussed and their characteristics are summarized in tables. A large number of relevant examples is presented illustrating the current status of enantiomeric and diastereomeric separation of amino acids and peptides. Strategies to enhance the selectivity and optimize separation parameters by the application of experimental designs are described. The reversal of enantiomeric elution order and the effects of organic modifiers on the selectivity are illustrated in both direct and indirect methods. Some applications of chiral amino acid and peptide analysis, in particular, regarding the determination of trace enantiomeric impurities, are given. This review selects more than 200 articles published between 1988 and 1999.

Abstract
Enantiomer separation by electrochromatography employing modified cyclodextrins as stationary phases is performed in two ways. (i) Polysiloxane-linked permethylated beta-cyclodextrin (Chirasil-Dex 1) or related selectors are coated and immobilized onto the inner surface of a capillary column. Enantiomer separation is performed in the open tube and the method is referred to as open-tubular capillary electrochromatography (o-CEC). (ii) Silica-linked native beta-cyclodextrin, permethylated beta-cyclodextrin (Chira-Dex 2) or hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin are filled into a capillary column and the bed is secured by two frits. Enantiomer separation is performed in a packed column and the method is referred to as packed capillary electrochromatography (p-CEC). In a unified instrumental approach, method (i) as well as method (ii) can be operated both in the electro- and pressure-driven modes (o-CEC vs. open-tubular liquid chromatography (o-LC) and p-CEC vs. p-LC). It is demonstrated that the electro-driven variant affords higher efficiencies at comparable elution times. Employing a single open-tubular column coated with Chirasil-Dex 1, a unified enantioselective approach can be realized in which the same selectand is separated using all existing chromatographic modes for enantiomers, i.e., gas chromatography (GC), super-critical fluid chromatography (SFC), o-LC and o-CEC. As the chiral selector is utilized as a stationary phase, an additional chiral selector may be added to the mobile phase. In the resulting dual chiral recognition systems, enhancement of enantioselectivity (matched case) or compensation of enantioselectivity (mismatched case) may be observed. The overall enantioselectivity is dependent on the sense of enantioselectivity of the selectors chosen and their influence on the electrophoretic and electroosmotic migration of the enantiomers of a selectand.
