Cationic ITP was used to separate and concentrate fluorescently tagged cardiac troponin I (cTnI) from two proteins with similar isoelectric properties in a PMMA straight-channel microfluidic chip. In an initial set of experiments, cTnI was effectively separated from R-Phycoerythrin using cationic ITP in a pH 8 buffer system. Then, a second set of experiments was conducted in which cTnI was separated from a serum contaminant, albumin. Each experiment took similar to 10 min or less at low electric field strengths (34 V/cm) and demonstrated that cationic ITP could be used as an on-chip removal technique to isolate cTnI from albumin. In addition to the experimental work, a 1D numerical simulation of our cationic ITP experiments has been included to qualitatively validate experimental observations.
