Separation of proteins using a novel two-depth miniaturized free-flow electrophoresis device with multiple outlet fractionation channels.
A novel free-flow electrophoresis glass chip design with two-depth etched structures for the separation and fractionation of proteins is presented. The microfluidic structures etched in two depths enhance the flow characteristics inside the miniaturized device. A novel nine-port outlet interface enables the fractionation of the separated analytes. The separation and focussing of a protein sample mixture demonstrated the ability of the new chip.
