This paper examines the potentiality of in-capillary derivatization for improving the sensitivity of the spectrophotometric detection of amino acids in capillary zone electrophoresis. 1,2-Naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate was selected as the labeling agent of amino acids. The underivatized sample and the reagent solution

Electrophoresis, 21(3), 563-572 (2000-03-22)
The application of chemometric techniques to the resolution of overlapped peaks in capillary electrophoresis (CE) is described. When a physical separation can not be completely accomplished, chemometrics might still resolve the determination of the analytes mathematically. CE with diode array
