Abstract:
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) with indirect fluorescence detection was used to analyze selenium (selenite, selenate, selenomethionine, and selenocystine) and antimony (antimonite and antimonate) compounds. The separation was achieved by CE in 6 min with a 1.2 mM fluorescein solution at pH 9.5. Fluorescein also functioned as a background fluorophore for the indirect detection of these nonfluorescent species. Linearity of more than two orders of magnitude was generally obtained. Precision of migration times and peak areas was less than 1.0% and 7.2%, respectively. The concentration limits of detection (CLODs) was in the microM range. The detection sensitivity was generally dependent upon the transfer ratio (TR, defined as the number of moles of fluorescein ions displaced by one mole of analyte ions) of each species.

There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or quantified.
