On-line sample preconcentration is an essential tool in the development of microfluidic-based separation platforms. In order to become more competitive with traditional separation techniques, the community must continue to develop newer and more novel methods to improve detection limits, remove unwanted sample matrix components that disrupt separation performance, and enrich/purify analytes for other chip-based actions. Our goal in this review is to familiarize the reader with many of the options available for on-chip concentration enhancement with a focus on those manuscripts that, in our assessment, best describe the fundamental principles that govern those enhancements. Sections discussing both electrophoretic and nonelectrophoretic modes of preconcentration are included with a focus on device design and mechanisms of preconcentration. This review is not meant to be a comprehensive collection of every available example, but our hope is that by learning how on-line sample concentration techniques are being applied today, the reader will be inspired to apply these techniques to further enhance their own programs.

Rationale: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) is a powerful method for identifying viruses via nucleic acid detection. The data processing method is critical in recognizing nucleic acid obtained by MALDI-TOF-MS. Therefore, new development of data algorithm is needed for virus identification.

Natural products (NPs) play an important role in drug discovery and drug development due to their diverse chemical properties and biological activities. In the present work, an on-line capillary electrophoresis (CE) method was developed and applied to screen protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors in NPs. As a generic technique, transverse diffusion of laminar flow profiles (TDLFP) was utilized to mix all reactants in the capillary for on-line enzymatic reaction.

In this work, a DNPH doped PDMS based membrane was developed to facilitate carbonyl compound derivatization. This membrane delivers DNPH in presence of carbonyl compounds to form hydrazones. Subsequently, the resulting hydrazones are preconcentrated, separated and detected by in-tube solid phase microextraction (IT-SPME) coupled on-line with capillary liquid chromatography (CapLC) with Uv-Vis diode array detection (DAD).

The number of prescriptions for new direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) apixaban, edoxaban, rivaroxaban and dabigatran has increased exponentially in recent years, increasingly replacing the old gold standard, vitamin-K-antagonists. Due to their wide therapeutic range, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is not required, although it has been proven that this could significantly reduce side effects. In order to develop a cost-efficient and simple method for the simultaneous detection of the DOACs and phenprocoumon, a new technology for sample preparation from capillary blood in the ambulant sector named VAMS® was integrated and an LC-MS detector with on-line solid phase extraction (SPE) applying a Turboflow HTLC Cyclone 1.
