Abstract
Devices, systems and methods for use in separating sample materials into different sample components and then isolating one or more of the sample components for further processing or analysis are disclosed. Devices employ configurations that optionally allow a sample material to be electrophoretically separated into sample components in a separation matrix within a separation conduit. The sample components may then be detected in a detection zone in the separation conduit, and then selected components shunted to a component collection conduit within the device downstream of the detection zone for further processing or analysis based on information received at the detection zone. Methods of using these devices, and systems that incorporate these devices are also envisioned.
