Capillary electrophoresis and sample preparation

1) What are the basic parts of a capillary electrophoresis (CE) system? Describe the function of each part.

2)
a) What are the two basic ways to introduce samples into a CE system?

b) How is the plate count increased in CE?

3) What is electroosmotic flow? Why do you want electroosmotic flow for some CE separations and not for others? What is unique about the flow profile for liquids under electroosmotic flow and why is this good for separations of mixtures?

4) What are some of the different modes under which CE separations can be done?
