Abstract
The capillary electrophoresis (CE) system with optical fiber light-emitting diode (optical fiber LED) induced fluorescence detector was developed for the analysis of the excitatory amino acids (EAAs) tagged with naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (NDA). The separation of EAAs was carried out in an uncoated fused-silica capillary (50 cm x 75 microm i.d.) with a buffer of 10 mM borate at pH 9.3 and an applied voltage of 20 kV. High sensitivity was obtained by the use of optical fiber LED induced fluorescence detector with a violet LED as the excitation light source. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) for glutamic acid (Glu) and aspartic acid (Asp) were 2.1 x 10(-8) and 2.3 x 10(-8) M, respectively. The detection approach was successfully applied to the analysis of Glu and Asp in biological fluids including human serum, rabbit serum and human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with satisfactory results.
