Abstract The possibility of open tubular capillary electrophoresis for clinical diagnostic use is examined. Capillary electrophoresis was performed in an untreated 50 microns (i.d.) x 100 cm (65 cm to detector) capillary with detection of absorbance at 200 nm. Conditions for the separation of serum proteins without adsorption to the capillary surface were established. Quantitative analyses of serum samples from 38 patients with liver cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, or polyclonal gammopathy by capillary electrophoresis were done and the results were compared with those by conventional agarose gel electrophoresis and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. All samples were analyzed in duplicate. We evaluated linearity of response, within-run CV, and the correlation between capillary electrophoresis and agarose gel electrophoresis.

Capillary electrophoresis is a technique that can be automated for the separation of charged particles. By investigating suitable sample dilution and injection time and adhering to a strict washing procedure we have been able to quantify paraproteins in serum samples. This has enabled us to use the technique of capillary electrophoresis for the provision of serum protein electrophoresis in a routine clinical laboratory. We present our findings of 260 serum samples, which included 76 samples with paraproteins analysed by both capillary electrophoresis (EC) and high resolution agarose gel electrophoresis (HRAGE). CE was able to detect all the monoclonal bands detected by HRAGE, and, in particular, better able to detect IgA monoclonal bands occurring in the beta region. The major advantages of CE over HRAGE relate to the automated nature of CE with the elimination of the need for a densitometer.

Abstract A previously reported agarose gel electrophoretic technique for the determination of serum lipoprotein patterns has been modified for analysis of a large number of samples for screening and epidemiological purposes. In addition, we demonstrate the varieties of lipoprotein patterns that can clearly be distinguished and visually evaluated for practical applications in the clinical laboratory.
