Preconcentration and preseparation (or "sample cleanup") are the necessary operations for sample preparations, when separation power and/or sensitivity of CE and CEC are not sufficient for direct analysis of peptides present at low concentration levels and/or in complex mixtures of different (bio)matrices, such as body fluids, cell lysates, and tissue extracts. After optimization the injection conditions, such as type and concentration of the acid and organic solvent in the sample solution, length of the water plug, sample injection time, and separation voltage, more than 3000-fold improvement in detection signal was obtained, permitting analysis of bioactive peptides and tryptic protein digests in low nanomolar (fmol/mL) levels. ./cache/cord-009492-lhwhkada.txt ./txt/cord-009492-lhwhkada.txt
