title: Analysis of antibiotics by capillary electrophoresis.
abstract: Recent developments in the characterization of antibiotics are reviewed. Many capillary electrophoretic techniques have been utilized in their analyses, addressing various aspects of quantifying, profiling, and monitoring. Laser-induced fluorescence detection systems demonstrated their usefulness in clinical settings and in the monitoring of residue levels in food matrices. Different sample introduction methods have been explored, enhancing detection sensitivity, or reducing or eliminating sample manipulation prior to injection.
