Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is an extremely sensitive technique, which has been used in the clinical laboratory for almost 10 yr. The components of CE instrumentation are described, as are injection modes, buffers, and effects of electroosmotic flow. The modes of separation used in CE, namely, capillary zone electrophoresis, capillary isoelectric focusing, capillary isotachophoresis, and micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography, are explained. References for 26 different clinical applications of CE are included, among them assays that are used routinely as well as niche assays for specialized applications of CE. Verification of CE assays, current instrumentation, and future development of CE in the clinical laboratory are addressed.
