摘要:
In a method for controlling sample introduction in microcolumn separation techniques, more particularly in capillary electrophoresis (CE), where a sample is injected as a sample plug into a sampling device which comprises at least a channel for the electrolyte buffer and a supply and drain channel for the sample. The supply and drain channels discharge into the electrolyte channel at respective supply and drain ports. The distance between the supply port and the drain port geometrically defines a sample volume. The injection of the sample plug into the electrolyte channel is accomplished electrokinetically by applying an electric field across the supply and drain channels for a time at least long enough that the sample component having the lowest electrophoretic mobility is contained within the geometrically defined volume. The supply and drain channels each are inclined to the electrolyte channel. Means are provided for electrokinetically injecting the sample into the sample volume. The resistance to flow of the supply and drain channels with respect to the electrolyte buffer is at least about 5% lower than the respective resistance to flow of the electrolyte channel.

An optical detection arrangement for small volume chemical analysis comprises a light source (22), a capillary tube (23) and a photoelectric detector (24). The arrangement of the light source (22) relative to the capillary tube (23) is such, that probing light (P) emitted from the light source (22) strikes a sample (S) to be analyzed, which is flowing through the capillary tube (23), whereas the photoelectric detector (24) is arranged relative to the capillary tube (23) such, that it is capable of detecting light comming from the capillary tube. The photoelectric detector (24) is connected with an evaluation electronics. Between the light source (22) and the capillary tube (23)the probing light (P) is guided essentially in a guiding means (26) which is made of a material having a refractive index gradient about perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the probing light (P), and which is connected to the capillary tube (23) such that probing light (P) exiting the guiding material (26) strikes the capillary tube (23). Preferably light emitting diodes (LEDs) or laser diodes are used as light source (22).
