  • Publication number: 20230062228
    Abstract: Embodiments include systems, apparatuses, and methods to efficiently separate analytes in a sample and elute fractions of the separated analytes. In some embodiments, a method includes introducing a sample in a capillary with a first end ionically coupled to a first running buffer and a second end ionically coupled to a second running buffer to form a pH gradient. The method includes applying a voltage between the first running buffer and the second running buffer, to separate a plurality of analytes in the sample. The method includes disposing the second end of the capillary in a collection well including a chemical mobilizer and applying a voltage to elute one or more analytes from the plurality of analytes in the sample, that have been separated, into the collection well. Embodiments include detection methods to monitor separation of analytes, mobilization of analytes, and/or elution of fractions containing analytes.

  • Publication number: 20220155284
    Abstract: Some embodiments described herein relate to systems and methods operable to combine immunoassay and Total Protein techniques in a single sample run. Some embodiments described herein allow for multiple sequential immunoassays to be performed in the same microfluidic device. Some embodiments described herein relate to stripping reagents operable to remove primary antibodies associated with immunoassays. Such stripping reagents can allow for additional immunoassays and/or Total Protein assays to be performed on the same sample.
