Abstract: The present invention provides a lipid extraction device comprising a capillary tube, wherein the capillary tube comprises a first region containing a first filler; and a second region present in a region other than the first region and containing a second filler having polarity different from the first filler. The present invention also provides a system and a method for extracting and analyzing lipids from a biological sample using the lipid extraction device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for the separation of proteins, comprising a capillary isoelectric focusing unit (2) for primarily separating protein samples on the basis of pI; and a hollow fiber flow field flow fractionation unit (4), connected to one side of the capillary isoelectric focusing unit (2), for secondarily separating the protein samples. The apparatus allows proteins to be separated on the basis of pI and molecular weight without denaturation and can further be applied for the identification of proteins in conjunction with nanoflow liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry after enzymatic digestion of the protein fractions.

Abstract: Provided is a multi-channel apparatus for non-gel based two-dimensional protein separation. One or more flat channels are arranged in parallel and have an isoelectric focusing section for primarily separating proteins from protein samples according to isoelectric point (pI) and a flow field-flow fractionation section for secondarily separating the primarily separated proteins according to molecular weight, thereby making it possible to simultaneously separate the proteins in multiple channels, to increase a protein separation speed, and to overcome limitation to sample injection due to an increase in channel volume. The apparatus can separate the proteins according to pI and molecular weight, be safe from denaturation of the protein in the process of protein separation, automatically remove an ampholyte used for pI-based separation, and separately detecting the separated proteins to identify the proteins using nanoflow liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS-MS).
