Capillary zone electrophoresis has become a major separation technique for the analysis of small volumes of materials and it is featured with the advantages of high efficiency, simplicity and rapidity. The purpose of this study was to characterize the performance of a capillary electrophoresis system in regards to the separation efficiency and quantitative capacity. Three sample introduction techniques--electromigration, gravity and pressure injection modes--were evaluated utilizing two different sample-buffer systems. Analytes phenol, benzoic acid and 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid were separated underpositive polarity voltage using a borate buffet and monitored with direct UV absorption detection. Mixtures of myo-inositol 2-monophosphate, myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and myo-inositol hexakisphosphate were separated under negative polarity voltage using a lon Phor Anionic Electrolyte Buffer containing an electroosmotic flow modifier and a background chromophore for indirect detection.
