Abstract
Availability of capillary electrophoresis (CE) instrumentation allows students to have hands-on experience with this modern separation tool. They gain more than operational knowledge, however. Inherent in the instructional process is an emphasis on the relation of the chemistry of the sample to the fundamental mechanism of electrophoresis and the demonstration of how CE complements other methods for similar measurements.

Kathryn R. Williams , Bhavin Adhyaru , Igor German and Thomas RussellJournal of Chemical Education2002 79 (12), 1475Students measure the diffusion coefficient of dopamine (3-hydroxytyramine) by capillary electrophoresis using three evaluation methods: single-point, graphical, and stopped migration. The experiment combines instruction of modern instrumentation with the ...

The Escalator—An Analogy for Explaining Electroosmotic Flow
Andrew J. Vetter and Garrett J. McGowanJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (2), 209The Escalator—An Analogy for Explaining Electroosmotic Flow
Andrew J. Vetter and Garrett J. McGowanJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (2), 209Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is an instrumental technique that is rapidly gaining popularity for use in the undergraduate laboratory. As a result, it becomes necessary to integrate the topic of CE into the junior/senior-level instrumental analysis ...
