Abstract
This article describes a microanalytical technique for carrying out se parations and chemical assays on biological samples at the zeptomole l evel using capillary electrophoretic systems. It is shown that through the use of high sensitivity detection systems, such as laser induced fluorescence, it is possible to detect components in single cells and even to detect single molecules of enzymes.
