A novel fritless capillary column for capillary electrochromatography (CEC) has been developed. The ODS microspheres were packed into a capillary and were then immobilized within an organic polymer prepared in situ through a photopolymerization process. The entrapment conditions were investigated to minimize the effect of the polymer matrix on the chromatographic properties of the packing material. The organic polymer matrix in the microsphere-packed column functions to link microspheres at specific sphere-sphere and sphere-capillary contact points. CEC separations of a PAH test mixture using entrapped columns with different UV illumination times were compared in terms of retention factor and separation efficiency. The optimized entrapped column demonstrated better chromatographic performance than similarly packed columns with conventional inlet and outlet frits. The electrochromatographic separations of hormones and peptides were also demonstrated on entrapped ODS columns.
