Capillary Electrophoresis Applications

Capillary Electrophoresis Applications

The CAPEL Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) instruments are robust, compact, and well design to be used as Dedicated Analysers for several dedicated solutions in the fields of Biopharma, Environmental Analysis, Chemical Industry, Food Testing, Animal feeding and Veterinary.

Besides these dedicated solutions, you can use both CAPEL CE instruments for developing your own specific assay(s) based CZE, CGE, CIEF, MEKC, CE-SDS and so on.

All assays that are described in the monographs or general chapters from pharmacopoeias can be executed on the CAPEL CE instruments.

Both CAPEL CE instruments are user-friendly for operation, so you can also use them as a simple CE tool to get familiar with CE technology.

As being Total Solution Provider for CE Solutions, we can help you with developing your assays. We will provide you the best services that you need.

Biopharma 

The CAPEL CE instruments can be used use a versatile Analytical Tool for developing assays in BioPharma that are based on capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE), capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF), micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) and CE-SDS.

All assays that are described in the monographs or general chapters from pharmacopoeias can be executed on the CAPEL CE instruments.

Here below you find a selection of several Biopharma applications.

Determination of proteins concentrations and their molecular weights

Compared with protein separation with SDS-Page, using our method give you several advantages:

  • Full automatization
  • Direct protein quantification
  • Absence of coloring
  • Short analysis time
  • Low analysis cost

QC and Process (Fermentation Control) 

Accurate analysis of fermentation liquid for the presence of inorganic anions, or cations, or organic acids can be of utmost importance to ensure the correct way of the whole  process.

For example, the elevated values of acetic acid can indicate certain deviations in the technology of fermentation, phosphates are important for the microorganism’s vitality and so on.

Our analytical protocol allows you to detect the target compounds in a fermentation liquid in all kinds of fields (BioPharma, Food Industry and so on)

Determination of water-soluble forms of inorganic cations in soils, clays, peat and many more 

The water-soluble forms of inorganic cations, such as ammonium, potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, are one of the substantial characteristics in agrochemical, land reclamation and sanitary assessments of soils. During ecological soil monitoring the cation balance is to be controlled for the human activity impact assessment.
