Abstract

A preseparation processor for use in capillary electrophoresis is described. The preseparation processor contains sample processing material, preferably in the form of a membrane, for use in concentrating or chemically processing a sample, or catalyzing a chemical reaction. It is particularly suited to the concentration of dilute samples or the purification of contaminated samples. The preseparation processor facilitates reliable and reproducible separation of analytes by eliminating inconsistencies caused by a reversal of the electroosmotic flow otherwise induced by the sample processing material.
