Abstract
The invention relates to a capillary electrophoresis apparatus, comprising background solution containing reservoirs, which are interconnected by way of a separating capillary ( ), current electrodes (E) connected to a voltage source, and a detector ( ) essentially in the proximity of the outlet end of the separating capillary ( ), as well as one or more solution reservoirs (R -R ) on the injection side of the apparatus and one or more solution reservoirs (R -R ) on the detector side of the apparatus, the ends of the separating capillary ( ) being placed in expansions ( ), intended for feeding various solutions from the reservoirs (R -R ) and extending from the bottom ends of capillary tubes ( ), said expansions extending as waste ducts (W , W ) to waste containers, said waste containers being located at a distance from the ends of the separating capillary ( ), and the current electrodes (E) being located in the waste ducts (W , W ), preferably in the proximity of the discharge ends thereof.
