Advancement of electroosmotic pump in microflow analysis: A review

Lin Li et al. Anal Chim Acta. .

Abstract

This review (with 152 references) covers the progress made in the development and application of electroosmotic pumps in a period from 2009 through 2018 in microflow analysis. Following a short introduction, the review first categorizes various electroosmotic pumps into five subclasses based on the materials used for pumping: i) open channel EOP, 2) packed-column EOP, iii) porous monolith EOP, iv) porous membrane EOP, and v) other types of EOP. Pumps in each subclass are discussed. A next section covers EOP applications, primarily the applications of EOPs in micro flow analysis and micro/nano liquid chromatography. Other scattered applications are also examined. Perspectives, trends and challenges are discussed in the final section.

Keywords: Electroosmosis; Electroosmotic pump; Microflow analysis; Micropump; Miniaturized liquid chromatography.
