METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MULTIDIMENSIONAL CONCENTRATION AND SEPARATION OF BIOMOLECULES USING CAPILLARY ISOTACHOPHORESIS

摘要

The invention provides a method for performing off-line multi-dimensional separation and analysis of a heterogeneous biomolecular sample. The method includes separating the heterogeneous biomolecular sample into a plurality of fractions using an, at least partially, capillary isotachophoresis mechanism. The plurality of fractions are then transferred to a liquid chromatography apparatus where they are each separated into a plurality of sub-fractions. The sub-fractions are then analyzed to determine their constituent molecules.
