Abstract

A fully automated multidimensional protein separation system is presented as a high-throughput alternative to traditional 2-D PAGE for comprehensive protein profiling and biomarker discovery. Here we present recent developments enabling separation of complex protein mixtures using a new chip design, a substantially modified fabrication process including the use of UV-ozone surface treatments, and in situ photopolymerization of poly(ethylene glycol)-based gel plugs to control pressure induced flow in selected regions of the chip.
