We developed a microfluidic chip-affinity CE method based on indirect LIF detection to study protein-drug interactions. The interaction between heparin and BSA was quantitatively studied, as a model system. In our method, sodium fluorescein was chosen as background, and redistilled water as marker to monitor EOF The electrophoretic mobility changes of BSA were measured, with various concentrations of heparin added to the running buffer. Each run was completed within 80 s. The binding constant was determined to be (1.24 +/- 0.05) x 10(3) M-1, which was in good agreement with that reported in the literature.
