Capillary Electrophoresis

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) continues to be a very active research area in separation science. Compared to the last review period, there has been a significant increase in publications that dealt with the application of CE to clinical diagnosis, biological sample preparation for CE techniques, and CE quantitation. Since the fundamental review of CE can be found in Analytical Chemistry (N1), the current section will focus on the aspects relevant to clinical application of CE. This is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all published papers in the review period; rather, the author has tried to select those papers that the author feels are significant to clinical chemistry
