Abstract
This paper reports an application of cycloolefin polymer (ZEONEX) for affinity microchip electrophoresis (AMCE), and an improvement of the detectability for chiral analyses by using a thermal lens microscope (TLM) as a detection scheme and a sweeping technique based on a strong affinity between amino acids and proteins. In the chiral analysis of racemic tryptophan derivatized with a dye on the ZEONEX chip, the affinity sweeping by bovine serum albumin provided a 26-fold sensitivity enhancement compared to a conventional AMCE analysis.
