Eigenmobilities in background electrolytes for CZE. V. Intensity (amplitudes) of system peaks.

We present a mathematical model of CZE based on the concept of eigenmobilities - the eigenvalues of matrix M tied to the linearized governing equations of electromigration, and the spectral decomposition of matrix M into matrices of amplitudes P(j). Any peak in an electropherogram, regardless of whether it is an analyte peak or a system peak (system zone), is matched with its matrix P(j). This enables calculation of the peak parameters, such as the transfer ratio and the molar conductivity detection response (which give the indirect detection signal and the conductivity detection signal, respectively), when the initial disturbance caused by the injection of the sample is known.

Eigenmobilities in background electrolytes for capillary zone electrophoresis: IV. Computer program PeakMaster.

We are introducing a computer implementation of the mathematical model of zone electrophoresis (CZE) described in Stedry, M., Jaros, M., Hruska, V.

Eigenmobilities in background electrolytes for capillary zone electrophoresis: III. Linear theory of electromigration.

A mathematical model of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) based on the conception of eigenmobilities, which are the eigenvalues of a matrix M tied to the linearized governing equations is presented. The model considers CZE systems, where constituents, either analytes or components of the background electrolyte (BGE), are weak electrolytes--acids, bases, or ampholytes. There is no restriction on the number of components nor on the valence of the constituents nor on pH of the BGE.

Eigenmobilities in background electrolytes for capillary zone electrophoresis: II. Eigenpeaks in univalent weak electrolytes.

We analyze in detail a mathematical model of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) based on the conception of eigenmobilities, which are eigenvalues of the matrix tied to the linearized continuity equations. Our model considers CZE systems, where constituents are weak electrolytes and where pH of the background electrolyte may reach the full range from 0 to 14. Both hydrogen and hydroxide ions are taken into account in relations for conductivity and electroneutrality.

Eigenmobilities in background electrolytes for capillary zone electrophoresis. I. System eigenpeaks and resonance in systems with strong electrolytes.

A background electrolyte system for capillary zone electrophoresis which is composed of three strong univalent ionic constituents is investigated. The ion 1 is considered as a counter-ion and two ions, 2 and 3, are considered as co-ions in relation to the analyte ion 4. We investigate the linearized model of electromigration in such a system and calculate the eigenvalues of a corresponding matrix.
