The developments in capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF) over the period 2003-2007 are reviewed. With the focus on technological aspects, cIEF papers published in the fields of methodology, new techniques, detection, multidimensional systems, miniaturization and applications are summarized. The methodology section covers recent research in ampholytes composition, detergents and other additives, carrier ampholyte free cIEF, coatings and other capillary modifications. In the section on new systems adjustments to the technique (e.g. dynamic IEF), different applications of cIEF (e.g. as injection system) and new devices are reported. Systems focusing on whole column imaging, fluorescence and chemiluminescence detection and coupling to mass spectrometers are discussed in the section on detection. Interfacing cIEF with MS via RPLC systems and hyphenation of cIEF with capillary electrochromatography and other capillary electrophoresis modes are also summarized. Papers focusing on miniaturization are reviewed in the section on microfluidic devices. The section on applications will show analysis of biopharmaceutical compounds and isolated proteins for metabolomic studies. For the analysis of complex biological matrices, generally multidimensional systems are needed, which are mentioned throughout this review.

A 54-year-old man who had been on the kidney donor register for 32 years received a kidney from a 9-year-old boy who had died of fulminant myocarditis. The post-operative course was poor, and hemodialysis was still needed after surgery. A kidney biopsy one hour after surgery showed a neutrophil-predominant inflammatory cell infiltrate localized to the peritubular capillaries (PTC) and acute tubular necrosis of the proximal tubule.

Advancements in food technology have increased the need for thorough analysis to ensure food safety, quality, and compliance with regulatory requirements. Capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) has emerged as a powerful tool in food analysis due to its high separation efficiency, low sample consumption, and ability to handle complex matrices. However, challenges such as the use of volatile running buffers and maintaining the stability of the electrical circuit connecting the CE and MS systems have been addressed through advancements in interface designs, such as sheathless systems and optimized sheath-liquid compositions.

A significant limitation of imaged capillary electric focusing (icIEF) is the inability to identify and characterize specific species in the electropherogram. This has led to the development of complementary ion-exchange chromatography (IEX)-based methods that are amenable to either fraction collection and subsequent characterization or online IEX coupled to mass spectrometry. To overcome this limitation while maintaining the use of icIEF, novel approaches, including an icIEF separation and fractionation technology (MauriceFlex, ProteinSimple), have been developed.

Hydrodynamic radius () is a descriptive metric of protein structure with the potential to impact drug development, disease diagnosis, and other important research areas of molecular biology. Common instrumental methods for molecular size characterization are disadvantageous due to high sample consumption, measurements made in non-physiological conditions, and/or inaccurate size determinations. Capillary Taylor dispersion analysis (TDA) is a molecular sizing method that utilizes nL sample volumes and achieves absolute size determination without calibration or comparison to standards.
