Abstract
The effects of different variables on protein separation by isoelectric focusing in uncoated capillaries were investigated. Four model proteins were used to study the effects. The variables included applied electric field, column length, % methyl cellulose, % tetramethylethylenediamine (TEMED), and buffer concentration. Methyl cellulose showed a bimodal effect on the separation performance in terms of migration time and peak width. It was determined that the optimal %TEMED and applied field depended strongly on each other. Furthermore, longer column lengths led to better resolution at constant field and % TEMED. Using a grid, the applied electric field and % TEMED were optimized concurrently at a fixed column length.

## Abstract In CIEF analysis, sample peaks can be identified by their relative peak positions (RPP) that are determined using only two internal p__I__ markers. The two internal p__I__ marker peaks should bracket, as close as possible, the sample peaks. The RPP values of the sample peaks are then ca
Capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF) has potential importance for the study of viruses. CIEF with whole-column imaging detection (WCID) is a novel CIEF mode, providing the advantages of high resolution, high speed, and easy method development. To facilitate the application of CIEF-WCID to the immun
