Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a powerful technique for peptide analysis, offering enhanced sensitivity and detailed insights into peptide properties. This review explores CE methods, including coupling with mass spectrometry and optimization for complex peptide mixtures.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Biochemistry
  • Separation Science

Background:

  • Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a versatile separation technique widely used in peptide analysis.
  • Understanding peptide mobility and its dependence on buffer pH is crucial for optimizing separation.
  • Advanced CE techniques are needed to analyze complex peptide mixtures and determine peptide properties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To critically review the application of capillary electrophoresis for peptide analysis.
  • To discuss instrumental requirements, sensitivity enhancement strategies, and multidimensional techniques.
  • To explore the theoretical basis of peptide mobility and its relation to physicochemical properties.

Main Methods:

  • Examination of basic instrumental requirements for CE apparatus.
