Abstract
A method for separation of mixtures in fluidic systems through electrokinetic transport by use of nanochannels when the fluidic systems approach the size of an electrical double layer, thereby allowing separation based on charge. The disclosed apparatus comprises a T-chip with a nanochannel section. The method and apparatus are useful for separation of many molecular species, including peptides, proteins, and DNA.
