Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a 70-amino acid single-chain polypeptide, which has found application in diagnostics as a biomarker of growth hormone disorders and as a therapy for growth failure in children and adolescents. Due to its strong anabolic effects, it is often abused by athletes for doping purposes. Here, we developed an on-line hyphenated method based on capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS) detection with electrospray ionization (CZE-electrospray ionization source-MS [CZE-ESI-MS]) for the determination of IGF-1 in pharmaceutical matrices. We achieved a highly efficient, accurate, repeatable, sensitive, and selective analysis of IGF-1 with favorable migration times (<15 min). Optimized and validated CZE-ESI-MS method was successfully applied for the determination of IGF-1 in injectable solutions (Increlex®), and its presence was also confirmed in nutritional preparations (tablets and liquid colostrum). This is the first validated CZE-ESI-MS method for the determination of IGF-1 in pharmaceutical matrices revealing the potential of capillary electrophoresis for its use in drug quality control laboratories with benefits, such as high separation efficiency, high-speed analysis, low sample consumption, as well as environmental and cost aspects.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is an interesting technique for protein and peptide analysis. However, one of the major problems concerns sample adsorption on the internal capillary wall. The use of non-covalent coatings using highly charged polyelectrolytes is an efficient, simple, and fast approach to reduce peptide and protein adsorption phenomena. We have studied in a systematic manner the effect of coating conditions on the stability and efficiency of multilayer coatings using poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDADMAC) as polycation and polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) as polyanion. When optimal conditions defined in the protocols are used, very stable coatings are obtained and adsorption phenomena are eliminated. The coatings are stable over a large range of pH buffer (2-10) and in the presence of organic solvent. Hundreds of analyses can be performed without coating regeneration. Coated capillaries can be easily stored and reused.

Abstract
The control of the EOF direction and magnitude remains one of the more challenging issues for the optimization of separations in CE. In this work, we investigated the possibility to use variously charged polyanions for a fine-tuning of the EOF using polyelectrolyte multilayers. For that purpose, polyanions of poly(acrylamide-co-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonate) (PAMAMPS) with different chemical charge rates varying between 3 and 100% were used. These copolymers are statistic hydrophilic copolymers of acrylamide (AM) and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonate (AMPS). The study of the influence of the chemical charge rate (AMPS molar proportion in the copolymer) on the electroosmotic mobility (mu(eo)) of a capillary modified by a polyelectrolyte bilayer (polycation/PAMAMPS) revealed that the fine-tuning of the EOF was possible, at least for cathodic or slightly anodic EOF (micro(eo) from -5 x 10(-5) to +35 x 10(-5) cm(2)V(-1)s(-1)). Electroosmotic mobility values were compared with the free-draining electrophoretic mobilities of the PAMAMPS constituting the last layer of the capillary coating. The stability of the EOF is discussed in detail on the basis of successive determinations of electroosmotic mobility and migration times. The application to the separation of a model peptide mixture demonstrated the interest (and the simplicity) of this approach for optimizing resolution and analysis time. Experimental resolutions were compared to the theoretical ones that we would obtain on a fused-silica capillary having the same EOF as the coated capillary.

Abstract
In this article, a series of ionene polymers were synthesized and used to coat fused-silica capillaries for the separation of recombinant and urinary human erythropoietin (rhEPO and uEPO) standards by CE. The influence of the charge density of coatings on the separation of rhEPO and uEPO glycoforms was investigated. Then, we further studied the method for fast separation and detection of rhEPO and uEPO standards by CE-ESI-MS. The influence of several CE and MS operating parameters, such as the concentration of CE running buffer, applied external pressure, and the composition and flow rate of sheath liquid on CE-ESI-MS was studied. The results demonstrated that when the capillary was permanently coated with 6,6-ionene and the pH value of acetic acid-ammonium acetate running buffer was 4.80 and 5.50, respectively, a significantly reproducible separation was achieved for rhEPO and uEPO glycoforms. In the online CE-ESI-MS experiments, we not only achieved the online MS signal of uEPO, but also obtained baseline separation of three major rhEPO glycoforms successfully and reproducibly on the 6,6-ionene-coated capillaries. Furthermore, the standard mixture of rhEPO and uEPO was separated, and two incompletely resolved peaks that were identified to be rhEPO and uEPO by the unique MS "fingerprint" were obtained. Additionally, the molecular weight of rhEPO and uEPO were verified and compared to the results by MALDI-TOF-MS. It can be concluded that, in contrast to other indirect methods, the online CE-ESI-MS technique with the combination of the advantages of both CE and MS shows great potential for the separation and detection of rhEPO doping directly in competitive sports.

Abstract
A new frontal electroelution approach that can be used for the preconcentration of amino acids in in-line solid-phase extraction-capillary electrophoresis (SPE-CE) has been developed. A single capillary was employed featuring a short monolithic SPE column created inside the capillary via photo-initiated, free-radical polymerisation of 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate and butyl methacrylate monomers. A weak electrolyte of dilute H2SO4, pH 2.9, was found to promote adsorption of the amino acids onto the SPE column. Elution of the amino acids was achieved using a dual solvation/ion-exchange transient boundary mobilised via EOF by using a strong electrolyte containing 62.5mM ethylenediamine, pH 2.9 with H2SO4 and 40% (v/v) acetonitrile. Using these two electrolytes, tryptophan was adsorbed onto the SPE column in weak electrolyte and eluted via a frontal electroelution mechanism in the strong electrolyte. Injections up to 20 min, corresponding to over 14 column volumes (or 1400% of the capillary volume) of sample provided quantitative extraction of tryptophan from the weak electrolyte and were eluted without any loss in efficiency. This represents a practical increase of approximately 300-fold when compared to a typical hydrodynamic injection occupying 5% of the capillary volume.

Abstract
The determination of peptides and proteins in a biological matrix normally includes a sample-preparation step to obtain a sample that can be injected into a separation system in such a way that peptides and proteins of interest can be determined qualitatively and/or quantitatively. This can be a rather challenging, labourious and/or time-consuming process. The extract obtained after sample preparation is further separated using a compatible separation system. Liquid chromatography (LC) is the generally applied technique for this purpose, but capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is an alternative, providing fast, versatile and efficient separations. In this review, the recent developments in the combination of sample-preparation procedures with LC and CZE, for the determination of peptides and proteins, will be discussed. Emphasis will be on purification from and determination in complex biological matrices (plasma, cell lysates, etc.) of these compounds and little attention will be paid to the proteomics area. Additional focus will be put on sample-preparation conditions, which can be 'hard' or 'soft', and on selectivity issues. Selectivity issues will be addressed in combination with the used separation technique and a comparison between LC and CZE will be made.

Abstract
The separation of the glycoforms of erythropoietin (EPO) by capillary electrophoresis (CE) was recently published as a monograph by the European Pharmacopoeia (European Pharmacopoeia 4 2002, 1316, 1123-1128). Although the experimental CE conditions employed a background electrolyte containing additives suitable for on-line UV-absorption detection, they were not appropriate for on-line mass spectrometry (MS) detection. In this work, an attempt was made to investigate experimental conditions employing volatile electrolyte systems to achieve the separation and characterization of EPO glycoforms using CE and ESI-MS methodologies. The influence of several operating conditions, such as the coating of the internal walls of the capillary as well as the composition, concentration, and the pH of the separation buffer were investigated. The results demonstrated that when the internal walls of the capillaries were permanently coated with Polybrene and a buffer electrolyte containing 400 mM of HAc-NH4Ac (acetic acid-ammonium acetate), pH 4.75, was used, a significantly reproducible separation was achieved for EPO glycoforms. Intact EPO was characterized by two mass spectrometry techniques: electrospray ionization (ESI-MS) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF-MS). The data demonstrated that MALDI-TOF-MS provided a good approximation to an average molecular mass of the EPO molecule. However, it was still necessary to carry out further separation of the intact EPO glycoforms in order to obtain molecular mass information when ESI-MS was used.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is an automated approach to electrokinetic separations that has had a deep impact in all fields of life sciences, including biomedical and biotechnological research and clinical and forensic practice. The present review highlights aspects of peptides and proteins separations, with particular emphasis on macromolecular analytes of biomedical interest. Among the various CE techniques available, a novel methodology is here illustrated consisting in separations in acidic, isoelectric buffers, which have the advantage of protonating the silica wall, thus minimizing interactions of proteinaceous material with the siliceous surface, while allowing delivery of high voltage gradients, due to their low conductivities. The review ends with applications of CE to the analysis of folding/unfolding/refolding/misfolding of proteins, a field which has deep implications in the biomedical arena, since it is connected to a host of disorders, such as prion protein diseases.

Abstract
One of the major problems facing the development of capillary electrophoresis (CE) is the relatively high limits of detection when compared to traditional high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods. While the use of an alternative detector can offer better sensitivity, a more universal approach is sample preconcentration. Numerous on-line methods have been developed to improve the sensitivity of CE, and are based on electrophoretic principles, chromatographic principles, or a combination of both. This review will discuss all forms of on-line preconcentration methods for CE, with emphasis given to those that have shown particular merit when applied to inorganic and small organic anions.

Abstract
One of the weak points of capillary electrophoresis is the need to implement rigorously sample pretreatment because its great impact on the quality of the qualitative and quantitative results provided. One of the approaches to solve this problem is through the symbiosis of automatic continuous flow systems (CFSs) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). In this review a systematic approach to CFS-CE coupling is presented and discussed. The design of the corresponding interface depends on three factors, namely: (a) the characteristics of the CFS involved which can be non-chromatographic and chromatographic; (b) the type of CE equipment: laboratory-made or commercially available; and (c) the type of connection which can be in-line (on-capillary), on-line or mixed off/on-line. These are the basic criteria to qualify the hyphenation of CFS (solid-phase extraction, dialysis, gas diffusion, evaporation, direct leaching) with CE described so far and applied to determine a variety of analytes in many different types of samples. A critical discussion allows one to demonstrate that this symbiosis is an important topic in research and development, besides separation and detection, to consolidate CE as a routine analytical tool.

Abstract
For DNA purification to be functionally integrated into the microchip for high-throughput DNA analysis, a miniaturized purification process must be developed that can be easily adapted to the microchip format. In this study, we evaluate the effectiveness of a variety of silica resins for miniaturized DNA purification and gauge the potential usefulness for on-chip solid-phase extraction. A micro-solid-phase extraction (muSPE) device containing only nanograms of silica resin is shown to be effective for the adsorption and desorption of DNA in the picogram-nanogram mass range. Fluorescence spectroscopy as well as capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection is employed for the analysis of DNA recovered from solid-phase resins, while the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to evaluate the amplifiable nature of the eluted DNA. We demonstrate that DNA can be directly recovered from white blood cells with an efficiency of roughly 70%, while greater than 80% of the protein is removed with a 500-nl bed volume muSPE process that takes less than 10 min. With a capacity in the range of 10-30 ng/mg of silica resin, we show that the DNA extracted from white blood cells, cultured cancer cells, and even whole blood on the low microliter scale is suitable for direct PCR amplification. The miniaturized format as well as rapid time frame for DNA extraction is compatible with the fast electrophoresis on microfabricated chips.

Abstract
Chemokines are members of the chemotactic cytokines family implicated in various immunoregulatory functions. The CXC-chemokine stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1alpha) was purified from the culture medium of murine bone marrow stromal cell line (MS-5) by affinity and reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Yield and purity were assessed by capillary electrophoresis (CE) with reference to the human SDF-1alpha from recombinant DNA technology. CE technique was useful to evaluate the purity of human SDF-1alpha from chemical synthesis and to resolve murine and human SDF-1alpha, differing by only one amino acid. Chemotactic activity of the murine SDF-1alpha was tested on the basis of CE quantification.
