研究目的
Investigating the enhancement of detection sensitivity in capillary electrophoresis using a concave silver mirror with light-emitting diode induced fluorescence.
研究成果
The concave silver mirror significantly enhances the detection sensitivity of the LEDIF system in capillary electrophoresis, achieving a sensitivity more than 16 times that of the system without the concave mirror. This advancement demonstrates the potential for developing more sensitive detection systems in CE.
研究不足
The study focused on a simple comparison of detection sensitivity with and without a concave silver mirror under equivalent conditions. Further optimization, including integrating the instrument and introducing some pre-treatment, could potentially lower the detection limit and increase sensitivity.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study designed an enhanced LEDIF detection system by coupling with an ordered concave silver mirror at the detection window of CE system. The optical mechanism of enhancing detection sensitivity was explored.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two tumor markers labeled with FITC (L-leucine and L-valine) were selected for the test.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A concave silver mirror, a high-voltage power supply, a bare fused-silica capillary, and a photomultiplier tube (PMT) were used. Chemicals included L-leucine, L-valine, FITC, β-cyclodextrin, and anhydrous sodium tetraborate.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The CE procedure involved conditioning the capillary, hydrodynamic injection of samples, and separation at 12 kV voltage using a running buffer. The detection was performed using the enhanced LEDIF system with and without the concave silver mirror.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The sensitivity of the detection systems was compared based on the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ).
