Heart‐cutting 2D‐CE with on‐line preconcentration for the chiral analysis of native amino acids

The use of transient moving chemical reaction boundary (tMCRB) was investigated for the on‐line preconcentration of native amino acids in heart‐cutting 2D‐CE with multiple detection points using contactless conductivity detection. The tMCRB focusing was obtained by using ammonium formate (pH 8.56) as sample matrix and acetic acid (pH 2.3) as a BGE in the first dimension of the heart‐cutting 2D‐CE. Different experimental parameters such as the injected volume and the concentration in ammonium formate were optimized for improving the sensitivity of detection. A stacked fraction from the first dimension was selected, isolated in the capillary, and then separated in the second dimension in the presence of a chiral selector ((+)‐(18‐crown‐6)‐2,3,11,12‐tetracarboxylic acid). This on‐line tMCRB preconcentration coupled with heart‐cutting 2D‐CE was applied with success to the chiral separation of D,L‐phenylalanine, and D,L‐threonine in a mixture of 22 native amino acids. The sample mixture was diluted in 0.8 M of ammonium formate, and injected at a concentration of 2.5 μM for each enantiomer with a volume corresponding to 10% of the total capillary volume. An LOD (S/N=3) of 2 μM was determined for L‐threonine.
