Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a versatile analytical separation method in the field of biochemistry. Although it has been proved that the relative molecular mass (Mr) of the polymers determines the threshold concentration of the entangled polymer solution, which will affect the separation performance of DNA molecules, there is still no report on the effect of Mr on the separation performance of proteins. Herein, we have thoroughly performed the CE of proteins ranged from 14.3 kDa to 116 kDa in a mixed hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) solution. The mixed solution was obtained with various Mr including 90,000, 250,000, 720,000, and 1,300,000. Then, we found that the mixed polymer provided a high resolution for small protein molecules while increasing the efficiency of large ones. Results demonstrated that the migration time decreased if HEC (1,300,000) was mixed with the lower Mr one, and the mixed solution (1,300,000/250,000) offered the highest resolution. The resolution was negatively correlated with the electric field strength. Finally, we have employed the optimal electrophoretic conditions to separate proteins in human tears, and it showed that lysozyme, lipocalin, and lactoferrin from human tears were successfully resolved in the mixed HEC. Such work indicates that CE has the potential to be developed as a tool for the diagnosis of xerophthalmia, meibomian gland dysfunction, or other eye diseases.

Abstract
Dynamic coating of the surface in capillary electrophoresis with chemiluminescence detection (CE-CL) using an off-column coaxial flow interface for the determination of four hemeproteins was developed. This method is based on the luminol-hydrogen peroxide reaction catalyzed by metalloproteins in alkaline medium. The experimental setup of the CE-CL system with the proposed off-column coaxial interface was evaluated by separation and detection of dopamine and catechol based on inhibition of the luminol-potassium ferricyanide reaction. Highly efficient separation of the two model compounds with symmetrical peak shape and satisfactory reproducibility was achieved by using this interface. In addition, in order to obtain a good resolution for hemeproteins, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) combined with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were introduced as dynamic modifiers to reduce the unwanted adsorption of non-specific protein. Several parameters affecting the CE separation and CL detection were investigated in detail. Under the optimized conditions, a mixture of the four hemeproteins (horseradish peroxidase (HRP), catalase (Cat), myoglobin (Mb) and cytochrome C (Cyt C)) could be well separated within 20 min. The linear ranges of the four proteins were 5.7 × 10(-8) to 1.1 × 10(-6) mol L(-1) for HRP, 4.0 × 10(-8) to 2.0 × 10(-6) mol L(-1) for Cat, 1.1 × 10(-10) to 5.6 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) for Mb, and 3.8 × 10(-7) to 7.7 × 10(-6) mol L(-1) for Cyt C. The limits of detection (LODs) (S/N = 3) for HRP, Cat, Mb and Cyt C were 2.2 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) (104.5 amol), 1.6 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) (74 amol), 5.6 × 10(-11) mol L(-1) (0.26 amol), and 1.95 × 10(-7) mol L(-1) (0.89 fmol), respectively. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of low-level Mb in a spiked human urine sample and the recoveries were above 97%. Our primary result demonstrated that the proposed CE-CL method has great potential for Mb determination in clinical diagnosis.

Sensitive and selective capillary electrophoretic analysis of proteins by zirconia nanoparticle-enhanced copper (II)-catalyzed luminol-hydrogen peroxide chemiluminescence. Talanta 2012; 97:193-8.

Abstract
We report herein a sensitive, selective, convenient CE determination of heme proteins in complex matrices by a sodium-dodecyl-sulfate-assisted, zirconia nanoparticle-enhanced copper (II)-catalyzed luminol-hydrogen peroxide chemiluminescence (CCLHPCL). Introducing a segment of sodium dodecyl sulfate to the capillary after sample injection not only rendered selective detection by quenching the luminescence signals from the non-heme proteins but also owning to the suppressed protein adsorption, led to significant improvement in separation efficiency and detection sensitivity. The signals were further improved by addition of ZrO(2) nanoparticles to the chemiluminescence solution. Compared with the conventional CCLHPCL, the detection limits (S/N=3) were improved by 10.2-22.0 folds, with 7.8×10(-9), 3.3×10(-9) and 1.5×10(-9) M for three model proteins, viz, myoglobin, hemoglobin and cytochrome C, respectively. Because the method did not require sophisticated pretreatment, it was convenient to analyze heme proteins in complex matrices, as demonstrated, hemoglobin in human blood and spiked human urine samples.

Abstract
This manuscript describes dynamic coating of capillaries with poly(L-lysine) (PLL) and silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) and use of the as-prepared capillaries for the separation of biogenic amines and acids by CE in conjunction with LIF detection. The directions of EOF are controlled by varying the outmost layer of the capillaries with PLL and SiO2 NPs, respectively. Over the pH range 3.0-5.0, the (PLL-SiO2NP)n-PLL capillaries have an EOF toward the anodic end and are more suitable for the separation of acids with respect to speed, while the (PLL-SiO2NP)n capillaries have an EOF toward the cathodic end and are more suitable for the separation of biogenic amines regarding speed and sensitivity. The separations of standard solutions containing five amines and two acids by CE with LIF detection using (PLL-SiO2NP)2-PLL and (PLL-SiO2NP)3 capillaries were accomplished within 10 and 7 min, providing plate numbers of 3.8 and 5.0x10(4) plates/m for 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), respectively. The LODs for 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA) are 32 and 2 nM and 0.2 and 1.5 nM when using the (PLL-SiO2NP)2-PLL and (PLL-SiO2NP)3 capillaries, respectively. Identification and quantification of 5-HIAA, homovanillic acid, and DL-vanillomandelic acid in urine samples from a male before and after drinking green tea were tested to validate practicality of the present approach. The results show that the (PLL-SiO2NP)2-PLL capillary provides greater resolving power, while the (PLL-SiO2NP)3 capillary provides better sensitivity, higher efficiency, and longer durability for the separation of the amines and acids.

Abstract
The different electrophoretic behavior of the members of two groups of proteins with respect to the absence or presence of detergent additives in the BGE was explored. Recombinant soluble concatemers of repeat 3 of the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-receptor fused at their N-terminus to maltose-binding protein (MBP) exhibited different electrophoretic mobilities in borate buffer (pH 8.3) in the absence and in the presence of dodecyl-PEG ether (D-PEG). This enabled the separation of the receptor fragments from MBP after enzymatic cleavage. In the presence of SDS, the mobilities of all proteins approached the same values with increase in detergent concentrations. In contrast, viral capsid proteins of a human rhinovirus (HRV) exhibited different migration in the presence of the additive. For the receptor proteins, extreme apparent high plate numbers were observed when the SDS concentration in the sample and the separation buffer differed. This effect might be erroneously interpreted as a high efficiency. However, it is due to the conductivity boundaries caused by the sample and leads to a total loss of separation.

Abstract
To improve the sensitivity of the UV-detection for the determination of trace amounts of albumin by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), five on-line preconcentration techniques, including field-amplified sample stacking (FASS), head-column field-amplified sample stacking (HC-FASS), stacking with a polymer solution, dynamic pH junction and large volume sample stacking (LVSS) with reversed polarity, were compared. Sensitivity enhancement factor and reproducibility were two factors that were used to assess the suitability of each method. To minimize protein adsorption on the capillary wall, capillaries were covalently modified with anionic polymer, poly(sulfopropylmethacrylate) coating. All used methods have good reproducibility. The maximum sensitivity enhancement factor (about 67-fold in terms of peak heights) was achieved with LVSS technique. The concentration limit of detection (LOD) (S/N=3) for the human serum albumin obtained with the optimized LVSS approach was 15 microg/ml with UV-detection. The method was further evaluated for the analysis of urine samples with gel-filtration-based sample-desalting procedure.

Abstract
A new approach for the analysis of large-volume naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (NDA) derivatives of amino acids by micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) in conjunction with a purple light-emitting diode-induced fluorescence detection is described. In order to optimize resolution, speed, and stacking efficiency, a discontinuous condition is essential for the analysis of NDA-amino acid derivatives. The optimum conditions use 2.0M TB (pH 10.0) buffer containing 40mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to fill the capillary, deionized water to dilute samples, and 200mM TB (pH 9.0) containing 10mM SDS to prepare 0.6% poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). Once high voltage is applied, PEO solution enters the capillary via electroosmotic flow and SDS micelles interact and thus sweep the NDA-amino acid derivatives having smaller electrophoretic mobilities than that of SDS micelles in the sample zone. When the aggregates between SDS micelles and NDA amino acid derivatives enter PEO zone, they are stacked due to decrease in electric field and increases in viscosity. Under the optimum conditions, the concentration and separation of 0.53-microL 13 NDA-amino acid derivatives that are negatively charged has been demonstrated by using a 60-cm capillary, with the efficiencies 0.3-9.0x10(5) theoretical plates and the LODs at signal-to-noise ratio 3 ranging from 0.30 to 2.76nM. When compared to standard injection (30-cm height for 10s), the approach allows the sensitivity enhancements over the range of 50-800 folds for the derivatives. The new approach has been applied to the analysis of a red wine sample, with great linearity of fluorescent intensity against concentrations (R(2)>0.98) and the RSD (three repetitive runs in one day) values of the migration times for the ten identified amino acids less than 2.8%.

Abstract
Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was used for analysis of magnolol and honokiol. Under the optimized condition, CZE with UV absorption detection provided that the limit of detection was at microM level. To enhance detection sensitivity of magnolol and honokiol, CZE separation system was coupled with a laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detector for the first time. The limits of detection of magnolol and honokiol were 12 nM (3.20 ng ml(-1)) and 18 nM (4.79 ng ml(-1)), respectively, showing that the CZE-LIF system provides greater than 100-fold sensitivity improvements than does the CZE-UV system. The developed method was applied to analyze magnolol and honokiol in spiked human plasma samples, microsome incubation samples as a preliminary demonstration of its potential in pharmacokinetic studies.

Abstract
Sample stacking is a general term for methods in CE which are used for on-line concentration of diluted analytes. During the stacking process, analytes present at low concentrations in a long injected sample zone are concentrated into a short zone (stack). The stacked analytes are then separated and individual zones are detected. Thus stacking provides better separation efficiency and detection sensitivity. Many papers have been published on stacking till now, various procedures have been described, and, many names have been proposed for stacking procedures utilizing the same principles. This contribution brings an easy and unified view on stacking, describes the basic principles utilized, makes a list of recognized operational principles and brings an overview of principal current procedures. Further, it surveys selected recent practical applications ordered according to their operational principles and includes the terms, nicknames, and acronyms used for these actual stacking procedures. This contribution may help both newcomers and experts in the field of CE to orient themselves in the already quite complex topic of sample stacking.

Abstract
CE- and microchip-based separations coupled with LIF are powerful tools for the separation, detection and determination of biomolecules. CE with certain configurations has the potential to detect a small number of molecules or even a single molecule, thanks to the high spatial coherence of the laser source which permits the excitation of very small sample volumes with high efficiency. This review article discusses the use of LIF detection for the analysis of peptides and proteins in CE. The most common laser sources, basic instrumentation, derivatization modes and set-ups are briefly presented and special attention is paid to the different fluorogenic agents used for pre-, on- and postcapillary derivatization of the functional groups of these compounds. A table summarizing major applications of these derivatization reactions to the analysis of peptides and proteins in CE-LIF and a bibliography with 184 references are provided which covers papers published to the end of 2005.

Abstract
CE offers the advantages of high speed, great efficiency, as well as the requirement of minimum amounts of sample and buffer for the analysis of proteins. In this review, we summarize the CE-based techniques coupled with absorption, LIF, and MS detection systems for the analysis of proteins mostly within the past 5 years. The basic principle of each technique and its advantages and disadvantages for protein analysis are discussed in brief. Advanced CE techniques, including on-column concentration techniques and high-efficiency multidimensional separation techniques, for high-throughput protein profiling of complex biological samples and/or of single cells are emphasized. Although the developed techniques provide improved peak capacity, they have not become practical tools for proteomics, mainly because of poor reproducibility, low-sample lading capacity, and low throughput due to ineffective interfaces between two separation dimensions and that between separation and MS systems. In order to identify the complexities and dynamics of the proteomes expressed by cells, tissues, or organisms, techniques providing improved analytical sensitivity, throughput, and dynamic ranges are still demanded.
