nanoCEasy: An Easy, Flexible, and Robust Nanoflow Sheath Liquid Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometry Interface Based on 3D Printed Parts.

Capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) is a powerful tool in various fields including proteomics, metabolomics, and biopharmaceutical and environmental analysis. Nanoflow sheath liquid (SL) CE-MS interfaces provide sensitive ionization, required in these fields, but are still limited to a few research laboratories as handling is difficult and expertise is necessary. Here, we introduce nanoCEasy, a novel nanoflow SL interface based on 3D printed parts, including our previously reported two capillary approach. The customized plug-and-play design enables the introduction of capillaries and an emitter without any fittings in less than a minute. The transparency of the polymer enables visual inspection of the liquid flow inside the interface. Robust operation was systematically demonstrated regarding the electrospray voltage, the distance between the emitter and MS orifice, the distance between the separation capillary and emitter tip, and different individual emitters of the same type. For the first time, we evaluated the influence of high electroosmotic flow (EOF) separation conditions on a nanoflow SL interface. A high flow from the separation capillary can be outbalanced by increasing the electrospray voltage, leading to an overall increased electrospray flow, which enables stable operation under high-EOF conditions. Overall, the nanoCEasy interface allows easy, sensitive, and robust coupling of CE-MS. We aspire the use of this sensitive, easy-to-use interface in large-scale studies and by nonexperts.
