Abstract
A multiplexed, absorbance-based electrophoresis system for analyzing multiple samples simultaneously without use of a mask or slit comprising a light source, a planar array of capillary tubes and a detector positioned off-axis with the light source and positioned on-axis with and parallel to the planar array of capillary tubes. Another embodiment includes a vent valve directly attached to the reservoir manifold for venting pressure from the reservoir. Other embodiments include vacuum attached to the capillary tubes to increase the speed of detection.
