Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been shown to be a useful separation technique. It has a wide range of functionality; CE has the capacity to analyze small and large molecules, from metabolites to polymers to larger biomolecules. CE works as a complement to existing liquid chromatography techniques where electroosmotic flow is advantageous over pressure- or gravity-driven profiles. Different modes of CE exist (CEC, CZE, FACE, ACE, ITP, etc.) and can complement a particular set of analytes, systems, or parameters. These techniques allow for the quantifying measurement of kinetics, dynamics, electrostatics, sterics, and much more.

CE and its various modes have been employed in nearly all fields, from pharmaceutical analyses to environmental remediation. This Special Issue aims to report on the current developments and applications of the variety of CE techniques. These include newer hybridization techniques (2D CE, CE-MS) and miniaturization (CE on chip).

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Separations is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
