The application of polyester microchip to capillary electrophoresis
Inexpensive disposable polyester microchip was fabricated through well-known photolithographic and wet-chemical etching procedure. Laboratory-scale laser induced fluorescence equipment was employed in this work to evaluate the separation performance of the polyester chip by using two laser dyes as samples. The polyester chip exhibited much higher separation efficiency than traditional fused silica capillary under the same miceller electrokinetic chromatographic condition.
