Abstract:
Amino acids are studied extensively using capillary electrophoresis. In a previous article, we reviewed applications reported in the period 1999-early 2001 (Prata, C., Bonnafous, P., Fraysse, N., Treilhou, M., Poinsot, V., Couderc, F., Electrophoresis 2001, 22, 4129-4138). In this article we follow on with this review for the period end of 2001-beginning of 2003. We will report the developments of detection methods, separations of enantiomers, the new medical applications, and amino acids in food and plants. This review shows that CE is more and more important for the amino acid analysis.
