Abstract
Active pixel sensor UV area imaging and capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection have been applied in an electrophoretically mediated microanalysis (EMMA) assay for substrate specificity of tyramine oxidase ( Arthrobacter sp.). Use of the UV area imaging detector to monitor four windows in a capillary with three loops provided intrinsic self-referencing for all species and identified tyramine and 2-phenethylamine as the only reactive components in a multi-compound mixture. Continuous engagement EMMA experiments showed significant benefits by comparison with plug–plug EMMA, improving sensitivity by extending enzyme–substrate interaction times and allowing measurement of time-dependent reaction in the substrate zones passing the four windows.
