Capillary electrophoresis (CE), after being introduced several decades ago, has carved out a niche for itself in the field of analytical characterization biopharmaceutical products. It does not only offer fast separation, high resolution miniaturized format, but equally importantly represents an orthogonal separation mechanism to high-performance liquid chromatography. Therefore, it is surprising that CE-based methods can be found all major pharmacopoeias and are recommended analysis products during process development, characterization, quality control, release testing. Different formats CE, such as capillary gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, zone widely used size charge heterogeneity well purity stability testing therapeutic proteins. Hyphenation CE with MS emerging promising bioanalytical tool assess primary structure proteins along any impurities.
