چکیده
In this paper a novel capillary electrophoresis chip (CEC) is presented with integrated platinum electrodes and simplified conductivity detector. CEC is fabricated by the method of mechanical modification with probe on organic glass. Capillary electrophoresis chip can rapidly completed ion separation by simulation of concentration distribution and zonebroadening. Detection circuit is simple which can detect pA order current. This system has those advantages such as small volume, low power consumption and linearity, and well suit for field analysis.

متن کاملA Portable Lab-on-a-chip Instrument Based on Microchip Electrophoresis with Contactless Conductivity Detector with Replaceable Detection Cell for Ornamental Fish Farms Application
Ornamental fish ponds requires continuous control of water quality such as salt content (salinity), hardness (Ca, Mg), and ionic contents particularly nitrate and ammonium. Conductivity is considered as a parameter correlates with these parameters and sensitive to environmental conditions such as temperature. Therefore, a conductivity detector can be employed for control of water quality in aqu...
متن کاملOn-column conductivity detection in capillary-chip electrophoresis.
On-column conductivity detection in capillary-chip electrophoresis was achieved by actively coupling the high electric field with two sensing electrodes connected to the main capillary channel through two side detection channels. The principle of this concept was demonstrated by using a glass chip with a separation channel incorporating two double-Ts. One double-T was used for sample introducti...
