Abstract

A capillary electrophoresis–electrochemistry chip constructed from low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) tape is presented. This is the first report of such a chip constructed in this manner using these materials. Electroosmotic flow at pH 7 is demonstrated by the migration of a neutral marker, catechol. The separation and detection of two phenolic compounds are presented.
