Simultaneous analysis of plural samples in a CE-CL detector possessing micro-space area for reaction/detection.
Plural samples were simultaneously analyzed in a capillary electrophoresis (CE)-chemiluminescence (CL) detector system, taking advantage of a micro-space area for reaction/detection at the tip of the capillary. The CL reaction of 1,10-phenanthroline and hydrogen peroxide was adopted and a Cu(II) sample was used as a model. Three different length capillaries were inserted into a flow-type CL detection cell made of a Teflon tube. Three samples migrated in the corresponding capillaries at the same time and mixed with the CL reagent at the tip of capillary to produce CL. The simultaneous analysis of plural samples in the present system supported the possibility that a real sample could be determined more easily, rapidly, and precisely with the calibration curve.
