Abstract:A miniaturized transverse flow gating interface (μ-TFGI) is presented for the on-line coupling of solid-phase extraction with capillary electrophoresis (SPE-CE). The fabrication and operation procedures of the μ-TFGI are described in detail. After the operation conditions were investigated and selected, the μ-TFGI was evaluated on an SPE-CE-UV setup using clenbuterol (CLB) as the test analyte. The preconcentration factors obtained with the SPE-CE-UV system and the SPE-UV part were 600 and 620, respectively. Th… Show more
“…Recently, Li et al. developed a miniaturized prototype of the transverse flow gating interface (μ‐TFGI) for the on‐line coupling of SPE and CE . Miniaturization of this interface resulted in a void volume of circa 11 nL.…”

“…A transverse flow of BGE through the gap is used to control the SPE eluate collection and injection [41]. As the SPE eluate is directly collected in the gap, valves and loops employed in previously developed interfaces are not required [41]. Miniaturization of this interface resulted in a void volume of circa 11 nL.…”

“…In this context, the transverse flow‐gating interface, first developed by the group of Jorgenson , is a cross‐like interface with SPE and CE positioned on opposite sides of the cross with a gap. A transverse flow of BGE through the gap is used to control the SPE eluate collection and injection . As the SPE eluate is directly collected in the gap, valves and loops employed in previously developed interfaces are not required in this configuration.…”
An overview of the design and application of coupled solid-phase extraction-capillary electrophoresis (SPE-CE) systems reported in the literature between July 2013 and June 2015 is provided in this paper. The present article is a continuation of our previous review papers on this topic which covered the time period 2000-2013 (Electrophoresis 2008, 29, 108-128; Electrophoresis 2010, 31, 44-54; Electrophoresis 2012, 33, 243-250; Electrophoresis 2014, 35, 128-137). The use of in-line and on-line SPE-CE approaches is treated and outlined in this review. Recent advancements, such as, for example, the use of aptamers as affinity material for in-line SPE-CE, the use of a bead string design for in-line fritless SPE-CE, and new interfacing techniques for the on-line coupling of SPE to CE, are outlined. Selected examples demonstrate the applicability of the coupled SPE-CE systems for biomedical, pharmaceutical, environmental, and food studies. A complete overview of the recent SPE-CE studies is given in table format, providing information on sample type, SPE sorbent, coupling mode, detection mode, and LOD. Finally, some general conclusions and perspectives are provided.

Flow-gated capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a hybrid of conventional and microchip CE since it employs a fused silica capillary as the separation channel while taking advantage of the well-controlled flow-gated injection, which adds versatility in terms of separation efficiency, analytical throughput, and ease of coupling with sample pretreatment procedures.
