Abstract
Lipid mediators participate in signal transduction pathways, proliferation, apoptosis, and membrane trafficking in the cell. Lipids are highly complex and diverse owing to the various combinations of polar headgroups, fatty acyl chains, and backbone structures. This structural diversity continues to pose a challenge for lipid analysis. Here we review the current state of the art in lipidomics research and discuss the challenges facing this field. The latest technological developments in mass spectrometry, the role of bioinformatics, and the applications of lipidomics in lipid metabolism and cellular physiology and pathology are also discussed.

Abstract
In this review, an overview of CEC and EKC methods with their developments are summarized for different natural compounds. It is divided into three main parts. The first part elaborates the separation of lipophilic compounds without any charged groups. The second part constitutes CEC and EKC of lipophilic compounds containing ionizable functional groups whereas the third part contains hydrophilic compounds. Packed, monolithic, coated, or raw fused-silica (FS) capillaries are among the choice for stationary phases. Applications of these phases on the above-mentioned three classes of compounds, coupled with different detection methods, e.g. MS or LIF, are explored and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed.

Abstract
A novel fritless capillary column for capillary electrochromatography (CEC) has been developed. The ODS microspheres were packed into a capillary and were then immobilized within an organic polymer prepared in situ through a photopolymerization process. The entrapment conditions were investigated to minimize the effect of the polymer matrix on the chromatographic properties of the packing material. The organic polymer matrix in the microsphere-packed column functions to link microspheres at specific sphere-sphere and sphere-capillary contact points. CEC separations of a PAH test mixture using entrapped columns with different UV illumination times were compared in terms of retention factor and separation efficiency. The optimized entrapped column demonstrated better chromatographic performance than similarly packed columns with conventional inlet and outlet frits. The electrochromatographic separations of hormones and peptides were also demonstrated on entrapped ODS columns.

Abstract
A review is presented on the current state of the art and future trends in the development of sol-gel stationary phases for capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The design and synthesis of stationary phases with prescribed chromatographic and surface charge properties represent challenging tasks in contemporary CEC research. Further developments in CEC as a high-efficiency liquid-phase separation technique will greatly depend on new breakthroughs in the area of stationary phase development. The requirements imposed on CEC stationary phase performance are significantly more demanding compared with those for HPLC. The design of CEC stationary phase must take into consideration the structural characteristics that will provide not only the selective solute/stationary phase interactions leading to chromatographic separations but also the surface charge properties that determine the magnitude and direction of the electroosmotic flow responsible for the mobile phase movement through the CEC column. Therefore, the stationary phase technology in CEC presents a more complex problem than in conventional chromatographic techniques. Different approaches to stationary phase development have been reported in contemporary CEC literature. The sol-gel approach represents a promising direction in this important research. It is applicable to the preparation of CEC stationary phases in different formats: surface coatings, micro/submicro particles, and monolithic beds. Besides, in the sol-gel approach, appropriate sol-gel precursors and other building blocks can be selected to create a stationary phase with desired structural and surface properties. One remarkable advantage of the sol-gel approach is the mild thermal conditions under which the stationary phase synthesis can be carried out (typically at room temperature). It also provides an effective pathway to integrating the advantageous properties of organic and inorganic material systems, and thereby enhancing and fine-tuning chromatographic selectivity of the created hybrid organic-inorganic stationary phases. This review focuses on recent developments in the design, synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications of sol-gel stationary phases in CEC.

Abstract
The recent invention and successive commercial introduction of monolithic silica columns has motivated many scientists from both academia and industry to study their use in HPLC. The first paper on monolithic silica columns appeared in 1996. Currently about 200 papers have been published relating to applications and characterization of monolithic silica columns, including monolithic capillaries. This review attempts to give an overview covering various aspects of this new column type in the field of high throughput analysis of drugs and metabolites, chiral separations, analysis of pollutants and food-relevant compounds, as well as in bioanalytical separations such as in proteomics. Some of the applications are described in greater detail. The numerous publications dealing with the physicochemical and chromatographic characterization of monolithic silica columns are briefly summarized.

Abstract
A monolithic stationary phase is the continuous unitary porous structure prepared by in situ polymerization or consolidation inside the column tubing and, if necessary, the surface is functionalized to convert it into a sorbent with the desired chromatographic binding properties [J. Chromatogr. A 855 (1999) 273]. Monolithic stationary phases have attracted considerable attention in liquid chromatography and capillary electrochromatography in recent years due to their simple preparation procedure, unique properties and excellent performance, especially for separation of biopolymers. This review summarizes the preparation, characterization and applications of the monolithic stationary phases. In addition, the disadvantages and limitations of the monolithic stationary phases are also briefly discussed.

Abstract
Sol-gel capillary microextraction (sol-gel CME) is introduced as a viable solventless extraction technique for the preconcentration of trace analytes. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the use of sol-gel-coated capillaries in analytical microextraction. Sol-gel-coated capillaries were employed for the extraction and preconcentration of a wide variety of polar and nonpolar analytes. Two different types of sol-gel coatings were used for extraction: sol-gel poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and sol-gel poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). An in-house-assembled gravity-fed sample dispensing unit was used to perform the extraction. The analysis of the extracted analytes was performed by gas chromatography (GC). The extracted analytes were transferred to the GC column via thermal desorption. For this, the capillary with the extracted analytes was connected to the inlet end of the GC column using a two-way press-fit fused-silica connector housed inside the GC injection port. Desorption of the analytes from the extraction capillary was performed by rapid temperature programming (at 100 degrees C/min) of the GC injection port. The desorbed analytes were transported down the system by the helium flow and further focused at the inlet end of the GC column maintained at 30 degrees C. Sol-gel PDMS capillaries were used for the extraction of nonpolar and moderately polar compounds (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, ketones), while sol-gel PEG capillaries were used for the extraction of polar compounds (alcohols, phenols, amines). The technique is characterized by excellent reproducibility. For both polar and nonpolar analytes, the run-to-run and capillary-to-capillary RSD values for GC peak areas remained under 6% and 4%, respectively. The technique also demonstrated excellent extraction sensitivity. Parts per quadrillion level detection limits were achieved by coupling sol-gel CME with GC-FID. The use of thicker sol-gel coatings and longer capillary segments of larger diameter (or capillaries with sol-gel monolithic beds) should lead to further enhancement of the extraction sensitivity.
