Abstract:We present an experimental study of a novel continuous electrokinetic molecular concentration and separation technique termed teı ́chophoresis (TPE). We demonstrate here that TPE can serve as a potential alternative to the electrokinetic method isotachophoresis (ITP). In ITP, an electric field serves to focus charged species between a low-mobility terminating electrolyte (TE) and a high-mobility leading electrolyte (LE). Similarly, TPE serves to focus charged species between a low-mobility TE; however, the LE … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
