End-Labeled Free-Solution Electrophoresis (ELFSE) is a new technique that is a promising bioconjugate method for DNA sequencing (or separation) and genotyping by both capillary and microfluidic device electrophoresis. Because ELFSE enables high-resolution electrophoretic separation in aqueous buffer alone (i.e., without a polymer matrix), it eliminates the need to load viscous polymer networks into electrophoresis microchannels. To achieve microchannel DNA separations with high performance, ELFSE requires monodisperse perturbing entities (i.e., drag-tags), which create a large amount of frictional drag when pulled behind DNA during free-solution electrophoresis, and which have other properties suitable for microchannel electrophoresis. In this article, the theoretical concepts of ELFSE and the required characteristics of the drag-tag molecules for the ultimate performance of ELFSE are reviewed. Additionally, the merits and limitations of current drag-tags are also discussed in the context of recent experimental data of ELFSE separation (or sequencing).

7종의 수용성 비타민 즉, 티아민, 리보플라빈, 피리독신, 시아노코발라민, 아스코르브산, 엽산, 니코틴산을 free solution capillary electrophoresis로 정량분석하였다. 최적 분리조건 설정을 위해 완충용액의 pH, 모세관의 온도 그리고 적용한 전압에 대해 실험한 결과 완충용액의 pH는 6에서는 겹치는 peak가 있었으며 pH 8에서는 최적의 분리를 보여주었고 pH가 더 올라갈수록 분리도는 저하되었다. 모세관의 온도와 적용한 전압은 둘 다 높아질수록 분리시간은 단축되었으며 온도 $25^{\circ}C$, 전압 20 kV에서 최적분리능을 보여주었고 그 이상의 각 조건에서는 두 경우 모두 분리능이 저하되었다. 앞의 최적조건에서 수용성비타민은 8분내에 분리되었으며 각 peak의 migration time의 편차는 $0.01{\sim}0.1$분(CV : 0.9%)이었다.

In the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution using thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent, analysis of each component constituting the plating solution is essential for the analysis of the reaction mechanism. And component analysis in the plating solution is important for monitoring component changes in the plating process and optimizing the management method. Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) method is rapid, sensitive and quantitative and could be readily applied to analysis of Auⁿ⁺ ion, complexing agent and reducing agent in electroless Au plating solution. In this study, the capillary electrophoresis method was used to analyze each component in the electroless Au plating solution in order to elucidate the complex bonding form and the plating mechanism of the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating bath. The purpose of this study was to establish data for optimizing the monitoring and management method of plating solution components to improve the uniformity of precipitation and stability. As a result, it was confirmed that the analysis of thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and Auⁿ⁺ ions and the analysis of aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent were possible by capillary electrophoresis. In the newly developed non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution, it was confirmed that Auⁿ⁺ ions exist in the form of Au⁺ having a charge of +1, and that thiomalic acid and Au⁺ are combined in a molar ratio of 2 : 1. In addition, it was confirmed that aminoethanethiol can form a complex by combining with Au⁺ ions depending on conditions as well as acting as a reducing agent.

Drag-tag으로 사용될 반복단위 단백질을 생물학적인 방법을 통해 생산함으로써 수용액 내에서 DNA 분리가 가능함을 확인하였다. 서로 다른 크기를 갖는 두 종류의 반복단위 단백질을 디자인하였고, 이를 발현시킨 뒤 정제하였다. 정제된 반복단위 단백질에 형광 dye를 포함하고 있는 100 base의 DNA를 연결하였고, 이 연결 물질을 모세관 내부가 수용액으로 충진된 microchip 상에서 전기영동 하였다. 그 결과 생물학적으로 생산된 반복단위 단백질이 SNP 분석과 같은 빠르고 효율적인 DNA 분석에 적합한 후보물질로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
