Salient performance data for the determinations of GLYP, GLUF, AMPA, and MPPA with the purpose-made CE-C4D system. Conditions: channel 1: GLYP, GLUF, and MPPA analysis: BGE solution: 1.0 M His/Ace (pH = 3.0); voltage: 20 kV; capillary: uncoated fused silica, 50 µm ID, Lt = 70 cm (Leff = 49 cm). Channel 2: AMPA analysis: BGE solution: 30 mM His/MOPS (pH = 6.7); voltage: 20 kV; capillary: uncoated fused silica, 50 µm ID, Lt = 70 cm (Leff = 62 cm).
