✦ Synopsis


Applicability of modern microfabrication technology to electrophoresis microchips initiated a rapidly moving interdisciplinary field in analytical chemistry. Electric field mediated separations in microfabricated devices (electrophoresis microchips) are significantly faster than conventional gel electrophoresis, usually completed in seconds to minutes. Electrophoretic separation of DNA molecules on microfabricated devices proved to have the potential to improve the throughput of analysis by orders of magnitude. The flexibility of electrophoresis microchips allows the use of a plethora of separation matrices and conditions. In this paper, we report on electric field mediated separation of fluorescent intercalator-labeled dsDNA fragments in polyvinylpyrrolidone matrix-filled microchannel structures. The separations were detected in real time by a confocal, single-point laser-induced fluorescence/photomultiplier setup. Effects of the sieving matrix concentration (Ferguson plot), migration characteristics (reptation plot), separation temperature (Arrhenius plot), as well as applied electric field strength and intercalator concentration on the separation of DNA fragments are thoroughly discussed.
