	abstract = {A dynamic pH junction was used in capillary electrophoresis (CE-DAD) to on-line preconcentrate, separate, and determine trace amounts of sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) in milk and yoghurt samples in this study. A sample matrix with 0.15\% acetic acid and 10\% methanol (MeOH) at a pH of 4.0, and a background electrolyte (BGE) that contained 35~mM sodium citrate with 10\% MeOH at a pH of 8.5, and an acidic barrage of 0.4\% acetic acid with 10\% MeOH at a pH of 2.5 were utilised to achieve a stacking effect for SAs through a dynamic pH junction. Under optimised conditions, the proposed preconcentration method showed good linearity (30{\textendash}500~ng/mL, r2~>=~0.9940), low limits of detection (LODs) of 4.1{\textendash}6.3~ng/mL, and acceptable analytes recovery (81.2{\textendash}106.9\%) with relative standard deviations (RSDs) within 5.3{\textendash}13.7 (n~=~9). The limits of quantification (LOQs) were below the maximum residue limit approved by the European Union (EU) in this type of matrices. Sensitivity enhancement factors of up to 129 were reached with the optimised dynamic pH junction using CE with a diode array detector (DAD). The method was used to determine SAs in fresh milk, low-fat milk, full-cream milk, and yoghurt samples.},

	abstract = {Complementary on-line preconcentration strategies are needed when analyzing different classes of solutes in real samples by capillary electrophoresis (CE) with UV detection. The performance of three different on-line preconcentration (focusing) techniques under alkaline conditions was examined in terms of their selectivity and sensitivity enhancement for a group of steroids, including classes of androgens, corticosteroids and estrogens. Electrokinetic focusing of large sample injection plugs (up to 28\% of effective capillary length or 22.1 cm) directly on-capillary can be tuned for specific classes of steroids based on changes in their mobility (velocity) using a multi-section electrolyte system in CE. A dynamic pH junction was applied for the selective resolution and focusing of weakly acidic estrogens using borate, pH 11.0 and pH 8.0 in the background electrolyte and the sample, respectively. Sweeping, using an anionic bile acid surfactant and neutral gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD) under alkaline conditions (pH 8), resulted in focusing and separation of the moderately hydrophobic (non-ionic) classes of steroids, such as androgen and corticosteroids. Optimal focusing and resolution of all test steroids under a single buffer condition was realized by a dynamic pH junction-sweeping format using borate, pH 11.0 and bile acid surfactant with gamma-CD in the BGE, whereas the sample is devoid of surfactant at pH 8.0. The design of selective on-line focusing strategies in CE is highlighted by the analysis of microgram amounts of ethynyl estradiol derived from a female contraceptive pill extract using the dynamic pH junction method, which resulted in over a 100-fold enhancement in concentration sensitivity.

	abstract = {Cell extraction and further sample preparation for nucleotide pool analysis using capillary electrophoresis was faster and simpler using volatile extraction solvents (e.g. organic solvents and de-ionized water) compared to the commonly applied acids dissolved in water (e.g. perchloric acid and trichloracetic acid). Temperature had to be controlled during the whole sample preparation process to prevent degradation, and extracts had to be cleaned from proteins and other large molecules prior to capillary electrophoretic analysis to improve reproducibility. Capillary electrophoresis using borate and cyclodextrins in the background electrolyte was used for determining 11 cellular nucleotides simultaneously. In order to optimize the assay, 0-100\% acetonitrile, 0-100\% ethanol, and 0-100\% methanol in de-ionized water were applied to extract nucleotides from mouse lymphoma cells, and nucleotide yields, recovery, and reproducibility were compared. The assay met the commonly accepted validation limits for biological fluids, if 20-80\% acetonitrile in water and 40-60\% ethanol in water were used as extraction solvents.

	abstract = {Velocity-difference induced focusing (V-DIF) of analytes by a dynamic pH junction represents a simple yet effective on-line preconcentration method to improve concentration sensitivity in capillary electrophoresis (CE), Differences in buffer type, pH and conductivity between sample and background electrolyte (BGE) segments of the capillary are properties used to optimize purine focusing within a multi-section electrolyte system. This method permits the injection of large volumes of sample (up to 450 nL or about 18\% of capillary length), resulting in over a 50-fold improvement in sensitivity with baseline resolution. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) for xanthine is determined to less than 4,0 x 10(-8) M under optimum conditions when using UV detection. Analysis of micromolor amounts of xanthine in pooled urine is also demonstrated without sample pretreatment. A dual mechanism involving dynamic pH and isotachophoretic modes is proposed to enhance analyte focusing performance when employing buffer pH junctions based on different types of electrolyte co-ions.},
