SUMMARY: Invention Available for Licensing,
Title: Gradient Elution Moving Boundary Electrophoresis (GEMBE).
Abstract: GEMBE is a method for performing electrophoretic
separation and/or purification of compounds in a mixture. The essence
of the invention is the use of a variable bulk flow in electrophoresis.
The method uses the electrophoretic migration of chemical species in
solution in combination with variable hydrodynamic bulk flow of the
solution through a separation capillary or microfluidic channel. GEMBE
can be used with the bulk flow solution flow in either direction with
respect to the electrophoretic driving force. Continuous sample
introduction eliminates the need for a sample injection mechanism, allowing for significant miniaturization.
