ABSTRACT:
The method entails using capillary electrophoresis or capillary isoelectric focusing to separate intact microbes. The capillary system can be a conventional capillary tube or a microfluidic device.The method is employed to maintain the microbes intact to identify and/or quantitate the microbes. The identification of the microbe allows for the diagnosis of disease associated with the microbe.
