Progression blot analysis

The possibility of separation and analysis of enzymes by CZE has been explored. Banke, et al. separated alkahne proteases from crude fermentation broth, and collected fractions from CZE for enzyme analysis. CZE was also used to monitor the progress of an enzyme reaction [23]. Konse, et al. reported modification of a microtitre plate assembly which was used to coUect fractions on polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes. Fractions blotted onto the PVDF membranes were then subsequently analyzed by a sequencer [24]. Emmer and Roeraade described an on-hne micro-post column reactor which they used in conjunction with on-column detection. By using the two detector system, they were able to rapidly monitor enzyme activity in samples. Through careful optimization of conditions in the reactor, the loss of efficiency at the point of detection through the reactor capiUary was minimal [25].
