Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) can be used to determine the electropho retic mobilities of polystyrene particles from the migration times of these particles assuming that (1) the particles do not interact with t he capillary wall, (2) the particles can be detected, and (3) the coll oidal suspension of particles is physically stable over the time cours e of the CE experiment (i.e., > 5 min). CE offers advantages of small sample size, automation, and ease of analysis. CE determined mobility data are used to qualitatively assess the adsorption of polymeric surf actants onto polystyrene particles.
