Determination of binding parameters between lysozyme and its aptamer by frontal analysis continuous microchip electrophoresis (FACMCE)

An original and simple methodology based on microchip electrophoresis (MCE) in a continuous frontal analysis mode (named frontal analysis continuous microchip electrophoresis, FACMCE) was developed for the simultaneous determination of the binding parameters, i.e. ligand-site dissociation constant (k(d)) and number of binding sites on the substrate (n). This simultaneous determination was exemplified with the interaction between an aptamer and its target. The selected target is a strongly basic protein, lysozyme, as its quantification is of great interest due to its antimicrobial and allergenic properties. A glass microdevice equipped with a fluorescence detection system was coated with hydroxypropylcellulose, reducing the electroosmotic flow and adsorption onto the channel walls. This microdevice allowed the continuous electrokinetic injection of a mixture of fluorescently labelled aptamer and non-labelled lysozyme. By determining the concentration of the free fluorescently labelled aptamer thanks to its corresponding plateau height, mathematical linearization methods allowed to determine a k(d) value of 48.4±8.0 nM, consistent with reported results (31 nM), while the average number of binding sites n on lysozyme, never determined before, was 0.16±0.03. These results seem to indicate that the buffer nature and the SELEX process should influence the number and affinity of the binding sites. In parallel it has been shown that the binding between lysozyme and its aptamer presents two sites of different binding affinities.     

芯片毛细管电泳用于人乳头瘤病毒分析的研究进展

人乳头瘤病毒（human papillomavirus,HPV）是一种常见的球形DNA病毒,目前已报道其可以导致6种类型的癌症发生,因此HPV病毒检测方法的研究引起了人们的重视。芯片毛细管电泳（MCE）,作为一种芯片实验设备,结合各种信号放大技术为HPV分型检测提供了简单、快速、高灵敏度和易便携化的检测方法。该文综述了MCE在常规HPV分型检测中的最新研究进展,主要分为MCE技术和MCE结合核酸扩增技术两个部分。综述的第一部分介绍了MCE系统、MCE芯片结构设计和电泳分离方法。典型的MCE系统包含了高压电源、分离芯片、电解液池、进样系统、检测系统等。该文还介绍了近年来应用最广泛的4种芯片通道,包括分离直通道、T型通道、蛇形通道以及双通道,并分别对它们的优缺点进行了比较。第二部分主要介绍芯片电泳在HPV检测中的应用和发展。由于MCE技术的应用,HPV目标物的分离时间,从以前的几个小时缩短到几分钟,极大地提高了分离速度。重点介绍了各种核酸扩增技术结合MCE检测HPV的方法。对聚合酶链式反应（PCR）和MCE结合用于HPV的检测技术、环介导等温扩增（LAMP）技术的HPV检测方法、基于PCR结合限制性片段长度多态性（RFLP）技术用于HPV分型的DNA检测、基于核酸序列扩增（NASBA）技术检测HPV mRNA、巢式PCR等进行了比较分析。其次,对HPV其他检测方法进行了总结,其中包括PCR结合傅里叶变换红外光谱法（FT-IR）、纳米技术、DNA探针结合电化学方法、亚铜粒子氧化还原锌掺杂的二硫化钼量子点结合T7外切酶电化学发光法和基于CRISPR/Cas12a的环介导等温扩增法。在这些非MCE方法中,电化学传感法,如阻抗法、脉冲伏安法和流动生物传感器,由于背景信号低、时间控制能力强,是一种比较理想的方法。最后,虽然近年来MCE技术得到了发展,所开发的设备得到了应用,但目前在MCE技术、方法和应用方面仍然存在一些挑战。MCE技术在HPV分型检测应用中面临的第一个挑战是,MCE本身无法对HPV核酸进行信号放大,从而不能在HPV的高灵敏和高选择性分析中得到很好的应用。第二个挑战是,虽然有一些研究者已经成功地将PCR和MCE集成在一个芯片上,但该技术的广泛应用仍面临困难,目前仍然没有真正集成的PCR-MCE芯片用于HPV检测。第三个挑战是目前MCE技术无法实现小型化、自动化器件的制造。最后,文章就MCE在HPV分型检测中开发更自动化、更快速以及更稳定可靠的检测技术提出了一些观点和见解,希望能对感兴趣的读者提供一些启发。     

Capillary electrophoresis methods for microRNAs assays: A review

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short noncoding RNAs that conduct important roles in many cellular processes such as development, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. In particular, circulating miRNAs have been proposed as biomarkers for cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other illnesses. Therefore, determination of miRNA expression levels in various biofluids is important for the investigation of biological processes in health and disease and for discovering their potential as new biomarkers and drug targets. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is emerging as a useful analytical tool for analyzing miRNA because of its simple sample preparation steps and efficient resolution of a diverse size range of compounds. In particular, CE with laser-induced fluorescence detection is a promising and relatively rapidly developing tool with the potential to provide high sensitivity and specificity in the analysis of miRNAs. This paper covers a short overview of the recent developments and applications of CE systems in miRNA studies in biological and biomedical areas.

Enhanced capillary zone electrophoresis in cyclic olefin copolymer microchannels using the combination of dynamic and static coatings for rapid analysis of carnosine and niacinamide in cosmetics

Cosmetics that have medicinal effects, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, have become a daily care routine consumption. The peptide additives, such as carnosine and nicotinamide, were frequently used to realize these medicinal effects. To accomplish rapid and effective quantitation of carnosine and niacinamide in cosmetics, capillary zone electrophoresis was executed in cyclic olefin copolymer microchips having both dynamic and static coatings. The static coating of cyclic olefin copolymer microchannel was constructed from bovine serum albumin adsorption, immobilization, and active site closure, while the dynamic coating was formed by adding surfactant into running buffer of capillary zone electrophoresis. The static coating can improve the hydrophilicity of cyclic olefin copolymer surface and avoid nonspecific peptide adsorption. The dynamic coating of sodium dodecyl sulfate in running buffer proved to be useful in flow velocity adjustment and the column efficiency enhancement in the capillary zone electrophoresis separation channel of the cyclic olefin copolymer microchip device. A separation resolution up to 4.24 on the mixture of carnosine and nicotinamide was obtained. Moreover, an analysis method was established and applied to simultaneous carnosine and nicotinamide determination in a liquid whitening essence and a solid antiglycation pill, and the results were verified by comparison with high-performance liquid chromatography methods, indicating its potential in complex sample analysis.     

Factors influencing the electrokinetic injection of oligonucleotides in capillary gel electrophoresis when using laser‐induced fluorescence detection

Capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) is a powerful tool for the analysis of oligonucleotides owing to its extraordinary resolving power. However, the only feasible injection mode for CGE, electrokinetic injection, can cause bias of the injected amount and thus reproducibility issues for CGE methods. Although the source of the bias in electrokinetic injection for analysis of small molecules by capillary zone electrophoresis has long been identified, there are very few studies on electrokinetic injection issues for biological molecules analyzed by CGE. In this study, we report three issues related to electrokinetic injection for oligonucleotides. First, the relationship between the injection amount and the sample solution resistance is not always linear for oligonucleotides, as has been observed for small molecules. Second, the injecting water prior to an oligonucleotide sample dramatically improves the reproducibility of both the injected amount and resolution through a ‘stacking‐like’ mechanism. Third, optimizing the gel concentration dramatically increases the amount of oligonucleotide that is injected into the column. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Nonaqueous electrophoresis on microchips: A review

The use of organic solvents as electrolytic medium in electrophoresis has become an important alternative for the analysis of compounds that exhibit low or no solubility in water. In recent years, nonaqueous electrophoresis has been extensively explored in conventional capillary systems for different applications. On the other hand, this separation strategy is still not as popular as free solution electrophoresis on chip-based platforms due to the effects of solvent in the background electrolyte on the sample injection, detection performance, and microfluidic platform compatibility. In this way, this review summarizes the main achievements on nonaqueous microchip electrophoresis (NAME). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review dedicated to discuss exclusively nonaqueous electrophoresis on chip-based systems. For this purpose, some important theoretical aspects involved when separations are performed in organic medium, such as equilibrium, interactions and electrophoretic considerations, are included in the review. In addition, the main challenges, advantages and influences of nonaqueous media on the sample injection, detection as well as the choice of the substrate to fabricate chip-based electrophoresis devices are highlighted. Last, examples showing the feasibility of nonaqueous microchip electrophoresis for applications exploiting different methodologies, operational, and instrumental conditions are summarized and discussed. We hope this review can be useful to spread the huge potential of nonaqueous electrophoresis on microfluidic platforms.

Comparative study of aqueous and non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis in the separation of halogenated phenolic and bisphenolic compounds in water samples

Capillary zone electrophoresis methods, based on either aqueous and non-aqueous solutions as running buffers and UV spectrophotometric detection, have been developed and optimized for the separation of several halogenated phenolic and bisphenolic compounds, suspected or proved to exhibit hormonal disrupting effects. Both aqueous capillary electrophoresis (CE) and non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) methods were suitable for the analysis of compounds under study. The separation of the analytes from other 25 potentially interfering phenolic derivatives was achieved with NACE method. Large-volume sample stacking using the electroosmotic flow pump (LVSEP) was assayed as on-column preconcentration technique for sensitivity enhancement. LVSEP-CE and LVSEP-NACE improved peak heights by 5-26 and 16-330 folds, respectively. To evaluate their applicability, the capillary electrophoresis methods developed were applied to the analysis of water samples, using solid-phase extraction as sample pre-treatment process.     

聚(2-甲基-2-噁唑啉)在毛细管电泳分离蛋白质中的应用

毛细管电泳作为一种常见的液相分离技术,因其分析速度快、分离效率高、样品消耗量少等特点,在蛋白质分离分析领域有广泛应用。然而,常用的熔融硅毛细管容易吸附蛋白质,导致电渗流不稳定,分离结果重现性变差;此外,商用毛细管电泳中常用的紫外检测器由于光程短,使得毛细管电泳的检测灵敏度往往不能达到低丰度蛋白质的直接分析要求。因此寻找能够阻止蛋白质吸附、同时能够提高检测灵敏度的涂层是毛细管电泳分离分析蛋白质的重要课题之一。聚（2-甲基-2-噁唑啉）（PMOXA）作为一种类肽类亲水性聚合物,具有与抗蛋白质吸附聚合物聚乙二醇类似的亲水性、抗蛋白质吸附性和生物相容性,而且其类肽结构使之具有较聚乙二醇更好的稳定性,因此近年来在生物质传递、药物载体和阻抗蛋白质吸附等领域得到越来越多的应用。该文主要从两个方面对聚（2-甲基-2-噁唑啉）在毛细管电泳中的应用进行了阐述。一是利用多巴胺作为黏合层将其涂覆在毛细管内壁作为抗蛋白质吸附涂层,这种涂层不仅能成功分离多种蛋白质的混合物（如溶菌酶、细胞色素C、核糖核酸酶A和α-胰凝乳蛋白酶原A）,而且在定量检测奶粉中三聚氰胺、乳铁蛋白的过程中,能阻抗其他蛋白质的非特异性吸附,提高了毛细管电泳对奶粉中三聚氰胺、乳铁蛋白的检测效率。二是将其与具有刺激响应性的聚合物（如聚丙烯酸）构成二元混合刷涂层,在一定的pH和离子强度条件下,涂层可吸附目标蛋白质（如牛血清白蛋白、溶菌酶）,在另一pH和离子强度条件下可将吸附的目标蛋白质全部释放,同时在释放过程中,处于涂层表面的聚（2-甲基-2-噁唑啉）会进一步阻止蛋白质的吸附,释放的蛋白质在电渗流和电泳的双重作用下快速迁移,到达检测器的蛋白质瞬时浓度大大增加,使目标蛋白质得到富集,目标蛋白质的检测信号得到放大,从而达到了提高低丰度蛋白质检测灵敏度的目的。此外,该文还对聚（2-甲基-2-噁唑啉）在毛细管电泳分离蛋白质中的未来发展趋势进行了展望。

The understanding of its fundamental working principles has been advanced and the detection approach has also been transferred to lab‐on‐chip devices. The range of applications has been extended greatly from the initial work on small inorganic ions to include organic species and biomolecules. Concurrent determination of cations and anions by dual injection from opposite ends has been demonstrated as well as sample introduction by using flow‐injection systems for easy automation of the process.
