Abstract
The invention concerns a multiple capillary electrophoresis system including many juxtaposed capillaries, at least one source for transmitting a beam designed to excite the molecules present in its path and inside the capillaries, and detection of the fluorescence of the molecules excited by said beam. The invention is arranged so as to detect the light emerging at the output of said capillaries and propagated along a direction wherein the capillaries extend and the detection resolution is sufficient for distinguishing the light emerging at the output of the capillaries from that coming from the walls thereof and/or their surrounding medium.
