Determination of human insulin and its six therapeutic analogues by capillary electrophoresis - mass spectrometry.

In this work, human insulin and its 6 analogues were separated and determined using CZE-MS. Three different capillaries (bare fused silica, successive multiple ionic-polymer layer (SMIL) and static linear polyacrylamide (LPA) coated) were compared based on their separation performances in their optimal operating conditions. Coated capillaries demonstrated slightly better separation of the components, although some components showed wide, distorted peaks.
