Q

Poor sensitivity UV

A

Because of beers law

  1. short path length

Q

Field Enhancement Stacking

A

analyte has lower conductivity than BGE

analyte moves faster in band

and stacks at interface

allows for longer injection, high sample amounts, increased sensitivity

typically prepared in water

Q

Electrokinetic chromatography details

A
  • allows for separation of neutrals
  • charged micelles have own migration time
  • partition between BGE and micelles by hydrophobicity
  • analytes that partition more towards micelles migrate closer to micelles
  • analytes that partition more towards micelles migrate closer to EOF

30
Q

chiral EKC advantages

A

Q

Affinity Capillary Electrophoresis Details

A

Determination of binding constants of receptor and ligand

33
Q

ACE media

A

BGE with ligand or receptor

34
Q

ACE separation

A

ligand binds to receptor creating complex and altering migration time

increasing conc forms more complex and observed time is closer to complex time than receptor time

gradient of change is proportional to binding constant

35
Q

ACE limitations

A
  • time consuming
  • multiple experiments
  • specialised
  • assumptions (conc, equil, wall, field)
36
Q

ACE advantages

A
  • small sample size
  • binding stoichiometry
  • does need pure ligand

Q

cITP advantages

A

concentration of analyte blocks controlled by concentration of leading electrolyte

42
Q

cITP limits

A
  • conc changes affect migration times
  • hard to quantify
  • not good for analytical

A

sweeping

sample prepared without micelles

analyte migrates to interface of band and BGE

leading to sharper peaks

58
Q

oxidation at anode

A

2 H2O(l) → O2(g) + 4 H+(aq) + 4e−

becomes acidic

59

CZE method

A
  1. Know analytes
  2. choose BGE to ionise
  3. apply suitable voltage - avoid joule heating
  4. organic solvents - alter selectivity/solubility
