Abstract:
A simple methodology for converting a commercial CE-MS instrument into an integrated 2-D CE system has been developed. The first-dimensional capillary operates as a typical CE instrument with UV/visible detection. Fractions leaving the first dimension are automatically collected and introduced into the second dimension, performed on a CE-MS apparatus, for analysis. The integrated system allows fractions in the second dimension to be analyzed using various electrophoretic modes. As an example, in this work we performed the separation of two families of antibiotics (nitroimidazoles and tetracyclines) in the first dimension and the subsequent resolution of the antibiotics in each family (nitroimidazoles were resolved by MEKC and tetracyclines by CZE) in the second dimension. The proposed system, which operates in an highly automatic manner, is flexible and allows various combination of electrophoretic modes to be implemented. In addition, the use of a mass spectrometer detector in the second dimension further increases the analytical potential of the system as a result of the high selectivity and wealth of structural information provided by the MS detector.
