CAPILLARY ELECTROPHORESIS | Crop-Protecting Agents

subject

description

Capillary eletrophoresis (CE) is becoming an advantageous technique for determining crop protecting agents as a result of its simplicity and high separation efficiency. Controversely, inappropriate limits of detection (LODs) and a lack of selective detectors restrict its applications. The present article provides a general idea of recent advances in off-column and on-column approaches to trace enrichment in analyzing real samples, and recapitulates the determination of crop-protecting agents by conventional CE as well as by emerging techniques, such as CE-laser induced fluorescence (LIF) or CE-mass spectrometry (MS). The usefulness of these approaches in food and environmental applications is documented.
