Electrophoresis of carbohydrates

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is well suitable for determination of saccha rides in a variety of pharmaceutical, biomedical and food samples. It is ab le to distinguish subtle differences between carbohydrate molecules which a re difficult to detect and/or resolve. Other advantages of CE are its simpl icity and effectivity. The review deals with the principles and practical a pplications of determination of mono-, oligo- and polysaccharides.
