Development of Capillary Electrophoresis Methods Coupled to Mass Spectrometry for Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Analysis

TL;DRAbstract

The analysis of large intact proteins and complex biological samples containing drug molecules is a common complicated task for many scientists. However, due to the importance of these molecules, there is a growing interest in pharmaceutical and medicinal research to develop rapid, highly sensitive and efficient analytical techniques. The advantages of capillary electrophoresis (CE) in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) provide a powerful analytical tool. However, further improvement and development of these techniques are required to extend their utility and to meet the challenges of selected analytes. Thus, the scope of this thesis deals with the development of novel analytical methods to achieve efficient and high performance analysis of peptides, intact proteins, digests of complex samples and basic pharmaceutical drug compounds in biological matrices. Implementation of CE for routine analysis of proteins and complex samples is constrained by the partial adsorption to the capi
