Electrophoresis is a comprehensive term that refers to
the migration of charged solutes or particles of any
size in a liquid medium under the influence of an electric
field
The first electrophoresis method used to study proteins
was the free solution or moving boundary method
devised by Tiselius in 1937

From World War Two until the late 1960s the
dominant separation techniques were:
- Paper chromatography: for most uncharged analytes
- Paper electrophoresis: for charged analytes such as amino acids
Tiselius was able to separate the 5 most
abundant proteins that occur in human serum
with relative ease and quantify their levels in
both normal and some disease states
Tiselius was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1948
for his work on protein separation by
electrophoresis.

CAE was popular in the clinical
laboratory because of its
simplicity, reproducibility,
reliability, and for its relative low
cost.
Because of the need for
presoaking and clearing, CAE
was largely replaced by agarose
gel (AGE) in most clinical
applications
The relatively poor resolution of most
commercially available cellulose
acetate membranes limited the
sensitivity of the technique.
![Page 9: Moving to a capillary electrophoresis platform assessing the role in hemoglobinopathies](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022715/5a66c0ac7f8b9a3c0e8b4ffd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Firstly adapted for the routine use by Laurell in 1962
Separation is based only on the charge-to-mass ratio of the
protein
In 1972, Laurell reported some clinical advantages of using
high-resolution agarose gel electrophoresis (HR-AGE) systems 10/11/2017 4:19 AM 9

Since the mid nineties, CZE has been developed for use
in clinical labs and it was extended quickly in the routine,
being a very sensitive and fully-automated method .
This technique is
a liquid-based
system that
bears some
similarities to the
early Tiselius
system.10/11/2017 4:19 AM 10

Capillary tube:
• The cross-section of which (typically 50 m)
• The length of the capillary differs in different
applications, but is normally in the region of
20 to 50 cm,
• The capillary is filled with running buffer
• Fused silica is by far the most frequently
used material, due to its intrinsic properties,
which include transparency over a wide
range of the electromagnetic spectrum and a
high thermal conductance.
• The inner surface of the capillaries can be
untreated or coated .
-+
High voltage power supply
The ends of a capillary are placed in
separate buffer reservoirs, each containing
an electrode connected to a high-voltage
power supply capable of delivering up to
30 kV.
• The sample is introduced by
placing one end into the sample
and applying an electric field
(electrokinetic injection) or by
applying external pressure for
a few seconds (Hydrodynamic
injection)
• An electric potential is applied
across the capillary and the
separation is performed
Detector
Computer
•detection of separated analytes
achieved directly through the capillary
wall near the opposite end normally
near the cathode
•The output of the detector is sent to a
data output and handling device such as
an integrator or computer.
•The data is then displayed as an
electropherogram

1- Electrophoresis (electrophoretic migration)
Principle:CE has two types of driving forces:

![Page 15: Moving to a capillary electrophoresis platform assessing the role in hemoglobinopathies](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022715/5a66c0ac7f8b9a3c0e8b4ffd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2- Electroosmotic Flow
EOF
•The inner surface of a fused silica capillary is covered with
silanol groups (Si-OH), which are ionized to SiO– at pH > 2.
•When silanol groups come in contact with the buffer during
CE, They readily dissociate, giving the capillary wall a negative
charge.
•The negatively-charged wall attracts positively-
charged ions from the buffer, creating an electrical
double layer and a potential difference (zeta
potential);
When a voltage is applied across the
capillary, the positive ions in the diffuse part
of the double layer migrate towards the
cathode; carrying water with them.
+ -INJECTION OF
SERUM
DETECTION OF
PROTEINS
The result is a net flow of buffer
solution in the direction of the
negative electrode, which results in
electroosmotic flow10/11/2017 4:19 AM 15

At neutral to alkaline pH
The EOF is sufficiently stronger (silanols are completely ionized)
than the electrophoretic migration and Despite the peptide’s
(negatively charged) electrophoretic migration towards the
positive electrode (anode) the EOF is overwhelming, and the
peptide migrates towards the negative electrode (cathode).

The Electro Osmotic Flow (EOF) is a

As a result, all proteins are carried

5- THALASSEMIA
Genetic hemoglobinopathy regulation.
Absence or reduced synthesis of one or
several hemoglobin chains.
Balancing increased synthesis of the other
chains.
Thalassemias are distributed around the
Mediterranean region, Middle East, Indian
subcontinent, southeast Asia

Mediterranean countries, in Greece, Italy, north Africa,
Asia….

- A very good Hb A2 focalization allowing
an automatic identification and
quantification of this fraction.
- A direct identification of the main
hemoglobin variants.
The Hb Capillarys allows:

![Page 72: Moving to a capillary electrophoresis platform assessing the role in hemoglobinopathies](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022715/5a66c0ac7f8b9a3c0e8b4ffd/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
CONCLUSION
- A separation of hemoglobin C and E from the A2 hemoglobin
- A slight difference of migration between S and D hemoglobin allowing an easy identification by overlaying with a memorized reference curve
- A perfect individualization and focalization of F hemoglobin between A and S allowing a precise quantification
