“…Till now, PICL has been applied for the determination of various compounds, such as pesticides [17,18], quinones [19], aromatic compounds [20], organic peroxides [21], chemical oxygen demand [22], saccharides [23] and insecticides [24,25], and it has been successfully coupled to HPLC for the analysis of complex samples [17, 19-21, 25, 26]. However, there has been no report on coupling PICL to CE, probably because the light sources (mercury [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23], xenon [24,25] or halogen lamp [26,27]) in reported PICL are too large in size to be used in CE detection. In addition, the large amount of heat generated from these light sources [19,22,23,26,27] could deteriorate CE separation performance.…”
