We therefore sought to evaluate reproducibility of shotgun proteomics in studies of archival FFPE tissue. Because FFPE samples are more complex than non-cross-linked samples, we evaluated FFPE human liver for analytical reproducibility and confidence in protein assignments.20 This complexity strengthens the argument for using high-resolution separations to maximize analyte concentration and minimize matrix effects. In this case, we used transient capillary isotachophoresis/capillary zone electrophoresis (cITP/cZE) in place of IEF to help address this effect. cITP/cZE has a resolution superior even to cIEF (90% of identified peptides in 1 fraction, 95% in 2 fractions or less for cITP/cZE, vs. 75% and 80%, respectively, for cIEF). 

Kaniansky et al. [21] have also reported on a method for the determination of nitrate, sulphate, nitrite, fluoride and phosphate by capillary zone electrophoresis coupled with capillary isotachoelectrophoresis in the column coupling configuration. Such distributions of these anions are typical for many environmental matrices, and it is shown that capillary isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis tandem enables the capillary isotachoelectrophoresis determination of the macroconstituents, while capillary isotachophoresis-preconcentrated microconstituents cleaned up from the...

Electrodriven Separation Techniques encompass a wide range of analytical procedures based on several distinct physical and chemical principles, usually acting together to perform the requh ed separation. Example of electrophoretic-based techniques includes capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), capillary isotachophoresis (CITP), and capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) (45-47). Some other electrodriven separation techniques are based not only on electrophoretic principles but rather on chromatographic principles as well. Examples of the latter are micellar... 

CE was recently used for anthocyanin analysis because of its excellent resolution. This technique has different modes capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE), micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC), capillary electrochromatography (CEC), capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEE), and capillary isotachophoresis (CITP)."° CZE is the most popular method for anthocyanin...

Triethanolamine can be determined in metalworking and cutting fluids by gas chromatography-mass selective detection of silylated derivatives, by isotachophoresis, by capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect ultraviolet detection, and by spectrophotometry (Kenyon et al, 1993 Fernando, 1995 Schubert et al, 1996 Sollenberg, 1997) and in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals by ion-exclusion chromatography and by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (Fukui et al, 1992 Maurer etal, 1996). 

Miiller et al., 2000 Her et al., 2003). Emphasis has been placed on (a) the use of gel chromatography or gel permeation chromatography for the fractionation of DOM on the basis of molecular size differences and (b) the application of electrophoretic separation methods (Perminova et al., 1998,2003 Specht and Frimmel, 2000), including electrophoresis, capillary electrophoresis (CE), isotachophoresis, isolelectric focusing,polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), and capillary zone electrophoresis (CEZ) (De Nobili et al., 1989,1998 Schmitt-Kopplin et al., 1998). 

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to MS has the advantage of high resolution and soft ionization for biomolecules, which may be used to differentiate post-translational modifications and variants of intact proteins and oligonucleotides. Different modes of CE (capillary zone electrophoresis, capillary isoelectric focusing, capillary electrochromatography, micellar electrokinetic chromatography, nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis) to MS as well as online preconcentration techniques (transient capillary isotachophoresis, solid-phase extraction, membrane preconcentration) are used to compensate for the restricted detection sensitivity of the CE methodology [77, 78].

The separation scientist with experience gained from a LC background may tend to limit the modes of electrochromatography to reversed phase (RP), normal phase, ion-exchange and, maybe, size-exclusion. Analysts from an electrophoretic background typically use the term "CE" in a much broader sense to include the main modes of capillary zone electrophoresis, micellar electrokinetic chromatography, capillary gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing and isotachophoresis. 

Capillary electrophoresis is a general term that is used to describe a number of different separation techniques. Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is the classic technique and is therefore usually referred to as just CE. Other techniques include micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC), capillary isoelectric focusing, and capillary isotachophoresis. CZE and MEKC are the predominant techniques and are those used herein, so only they will be discussed in detail here.
