In capillary electrokinetic chromatography, neutral analytes can be injected by electroosmotic flow directly from a sample matrix into a separation buffer containing an electrokinetic vector with an opposite mobility. Analytes are injected at the velocity of electroosmotic flow but are retained at the interface of the sample matrix co-ion and separation buffer micelle zones as analyte/micelle complexes. A simple electrokinetic chromatography system containing sodium dodecyl sulfate as the micellar agent with borate as the buffering electrolyte included in the separation buffer and in the sample matrix to provide continuous conductivity was investigated. Concentrations of the micelle, methanol, and borate in the separation buffer were explored to increase maximum injection length of neutral analytes. Reducing the analyte velocity in the separation buffer without substantially decreasing the velocity of the analyte during injection from the sample vial allowed greatly extended sample plug injection lengths. It is presently possible to inject sample solvent volumes equivalent to similar to7 effective capillary lengths (180 cm) with a 50-mum-i.d. capillary (24.5 cm effective capillary length), total volume of sample injection similar to3.5 muL Equations describing the injection process and maximum injection lengths for this mode of stacking in electrokinetic capillary chromatography are introduced. The result of this work leads to a postulated generalization of electrokinetic stacking injection maximums for electrophoretic processes, and the concept of orthogonal analyte stacking/ injection systems is discussed.
