Large-scale carbohydrate analysis by capillary array electrophoresis: Part 1. Separation and scale-up
A 96-capillary array electrophoresis (CAE) instrument has been adapted for large-scale mono- and oligosaccharide analysis and characterization. Operational protocols and data processing tools have been developed to optimize the CAE system for this application. Effects of different additives to the running buffer on efficiency and capillary-to-capillary performance reproducibility have been studied.
