When using a background electrolyte with a buffer having strong temperature dependence of pK, different operating temperatures result in different operating pH values, using the same background electrolyte (BGE). It has been shown that this can be used to fine-tune selectivities of sample mixtures of weak analytes. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) equipment is designed to operate under isothermal conditions, but by proper programming, a very reproducible temperature and thus BGE pH program during the analysis can be realized. This was experimentally verified and illustrated by computer simulations. Equipment characteristics have been determined, and possibilities and restrictions to make use of this feature are presented.

Natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for the development of a new generation of antimicrobials to combat antibiotic-resistant pathogens. They have found extensive applications in the fields of medicine, food, and agriculture. However, efficiently screening AMPs from natural sources poses several challenges, including low efficiency and high antibiotic resistance.

Flavonoids are bioactive components in natural products, which possess anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and cardiovascular protective properties. However, due to the complexity and low content of the components in these samples, developing rapid and sensitive methods for the isolation and extraction of flavonoids still remains a challenge in medical and food science. Herein, a 4-formylphenylboronic acid functionalized magnetic FeO nanomaterial (FeO@FPBA) was synthesized and applied as a sorbent of magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) to covalently extract flavonoids from leaves of Lonicera japonica Thunb.

In most cases, the diagnosis of diabetes in animal models is based solely on blood glucose levels. While hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is widely used in the diagnosis of diabetes in humans, it is rarely measured in mice in diabetes research. This is thought to be because there are no established reference values for mouse HbA1c, as well as the fact that there are very few reports on the variability and reproducibility of measurements taken using different devices.

DNA and RNA markers are significant in forensic practices, such as individual and body fluid identification. However, forensic DNA and RNA markers were separately analyzed in most forensic experiments, which resulted in large amounts of sample consumption, complex procedures, and weak inter-evidence correlation. While several integrated methods based on capillary electrophoresis and next-generation sequencing technologies were reported, integrated procedures were mostly on nucleic acid co-extraction, co-electrophoresis, or co-sequencing, and the number and type of markers co-tested were limited.
