Abstract

Capillary zone electrophoresis was employed to rapidly separate sugars, sugar alcohol, and sugar acids according to their electrophoretic mobilities in a strong alkaline solution containing a cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium chloride. Sample zones were monitored electrochemically using amperometric detection at a constant potential of 0.7 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) with a copper-disk microelectrode (30 μm in diameter). The copper microelectrode in strong basic solutions with a cationic surfactant showed about two-times the electrocatalytic oxidation currents for carbohydrates and related compounds compared to those without a cationic surfactant. A sample mixture of carbohydrates and related compounds was separated in less than 15 min, being one third compared with that of the conventional method. The detection limits for the samples studied were about 2.5 f mol (S/N=3), being about one twentieth compared with that of the conventional method.
