Abstract
The preparation and performance of an onβline preconcentrator for capillary electrophoresis (CE) is described. Borosilicate glass microspheres were dryβpacked into the fused silica column terminus and sintered in place with a micro electric are developed for this application. Reversedβphase LC packing material was slurryβpacked onto this frit, in lengths of 1β3 mm. An additional frit of borosilicate beads behind the preconcentrator was used to fix the packed bed in place. The performance of the packed bed preconcentrator for the enhancement of UV and fluorescence detection limits was evaluated. Construction of the micro electric are device, the packing procedures, and practical applications are described.

A unique preconcentrator was constructed for on-line preconcentration using capillary electrophoresis generating concentration detection limits for peptides in the mid-picomolar range. Several common sheathless electrospray configurations were constructed in conjunction with the preconcentrator and
## Abstract A simple isotachophoretic (ITP) preconcentration column for subsequent online capillary zone electrophoresis is described, and its use for enhancing detectability in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) is evaluated. Sample preconcentration using ITP is shown to enhance detectability in
