Abstract The purpose of this study was to compare experimental electrokinetic plug flow velocities to computational flow models of microfabricated capillaries. Electroosmotic flow studies of dichlorofluorescein and electrophoretic separation of dopamine and catechol in a microfabricated capillary electrophoresis (CE) system were performed both experimentally and computationally. A “balanced cross design” consisting of a bent 2 cm long injection channel and a straight 2 cm long separation channel was used. The geometry of the capillary was 65 μm wide and 20 μm deep. For the fluorescein study, separation voltages ranging between 0.25 kV and 1 kV were applied, while voltages ranging from 100 V to 550 V were used in the separation studies. Laser Induced Fluorescent (LIF) images were obtained for flow visualization and qualitative analysis in the electroosmotic flow studies, while electrochemical potentials were acquired using “on-chip” electrodes interfaced to a custom-designed power supply and electrochemical detection (ECD) circuit. Finite element models of the experimental device were generated and flows were simulated using commercially available software. For the electroosmotic flow studies, the computational results were found to be within ± 11% of the experimentally obtained values. Similarly, the results of the computational separations of catechol and dopamine predicted plug velocities that were within ± 7.6% of the experimentally determined values.
