Capillary array electrophoresis (CAE) is founded with the laser induced fluorescence detection (LIFD) system. The same model as the detection system is simulated in Tracepro and the stray light caused by capillaries is analyzed. The stray light distribution of the observation surface is plotted when the laser scans the different sections of a capillary in the array. The results of simulation indicate that the stray light is strongest when scanning the inner center of a capillary and decreases at edges; in two cases (50μm and 75μm inner diameter, ID) when the ID is larger, the stray light is stronger as a whole. Different ID of capillaries which affects the stray light is analyzed; considering many factors, 50μm ID of capillary is appropriate. Based on the analysis of stray light cross-talk by other capillaries in an array, the spacing between capillaries in an array is suggested more than 50μm which the stray light is steady-going and simple to operate. The results can be helpful for the mode of the laser scanning different capillaries in an array sequentially.

Despite the rapid growth in the use of imaging detectors in spectroscopy, the charge-injection device (CID) has unique features that have not been fully exploited. The advantages of the CID as a two-dimensional array detector for laser-induced fluorescence detection in highly multiplexed capillary electrophoresis are evaluated. In such a system, the CID maintains both high sensitivity and high sampling rate, which are usually difficult to achieve simultaneously with other array detectors. Applying the electronic windowing function significantly improves the scan rate and greatly reduces the volume of data generated. With 1-s exposure time and 488-nm excitation, the detection limit of the system is 10−12 M fluorescein with the device cryogenically cooled and 10−11 M fluorescein at ambient temperature. The low dark current of the CID imager allows operation at room temperature without significantly affecting sensitivity when combined with moderate laser powers. We demonstrate that the CID is well suited for high-speed, high-throughput DNA sequencing based on multiplexed capillary electrophoresis with on-column laser-induced fluorescence detection.
