Parallel capillaries for high throughput in electrophoretic separations and electroosmotic drug discovery systems

Electrophoresis microstructures are known to be up to 100-fold faster than today´s analytical instruments. In some cases, even higher throughput is required or there is an inherent limitation to separation speed. Therefore, parallel processing becomes very important. Injections into parallel capillaries are feasible using one introduction channel to feed the sample. This allows one to control up to 80 channels using 4-electrodes only
