One of the major drawbacks of electrophoresis in both capillary and microchip is the unsatisfactory sensitivity. Online sample preconcentration techniques can be regarded as the most common and powerful approaches commonly applied to enhance overall detection sensitivity. While the advances of various online preconcentration strategies in capillary and microchip employing aqueous background electrolytes are well-reviewed, there has been limited discussion of the feasible preconcentration techniques specifically developed for capillary and microchip using nonaqueous background electrolytes. This review provides the first consolidated overview of various online preconcentration techniques in nonaqueous capillary and microchip electrophoresis, covering the period of the last two decades. It covers developments in the field of sample stacking, isotachophoresis, and micellar-based stacking. Attention is also given to multi-stacking strategies that have been used for nonaqueous electrophoresis.

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is gaining attention in the field of single-cell proteomics for its ultra-low-flow and high-resolution separation abilities. Even more sample-limited yet rich in biological information are phosphoproteomics experiments, as the phosphoproteome composes only a fraction of the whole cellular proteome. Rapid analysis, high sensitivity, and maximization of sample utilization are paramount for single-cell analysis.

B-complex vitamins are essential micronutrients that maintaining health, and provide (individually/simultaneously) many important biological actions in organism. Therefore, sensitive, reliable analytical method to determine B-complex vitamins simultaneously in actual samples is significant. Conventional analytical methods for vitamins analysis are usually labor-intensive, time-consuming and mostly do not allow the simultaneous determination.

Article Synopsis
  • Recent research on mRNA therapeutics has increased due to COVID-19, with applications in vaccination, cancer therapy, and immune modulation, but they face challenges like instability and degradation.
  • Traditional agarose gel electrophoresis has been the standard for analyzing RNA, but newer methods, like those using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer, offer better quality assessment despite being more expensive and less accessible.
  • The proposed full-lane quantification (FLQ) method integrates ImageJ with programming in Python and R to provide a quick and affordable way to evaluate mRNA degradation, yielding results comparable to those from more sophisticated systems.
