Despite this fact, the method has never become widely adopted. The main aim of this work was to utilize the ITP-IFD for the separation of carboxylic acids by using a commercially available, portable, microfluidic chip electrophoresis system. On the 16.8-mm effective length separation channel, a maximum of eight carboxylic acids could be separated, with LOD values in a range from 0.12 to 0.4 mM. The commercial chips used for all experiments have multichannel structures important for analysis of more than one sample per a chip in case of standard use. This multichannel structure was used to investigate the possibility of multiple sample loading for ITP separation. Application of ITP-IFD was investigated for analysis of benzoate in diet soft drinks and the results were in good agreement with results of a CE method.
