Attila Gáspár, DSc

I conduct electrophoretic research in capillaries and microfluidic chips.
I have developed and studied various sample introduction techniques, as in both methods one of the fundamental and still actively researched challenges is the reproducible injection of nanoliter or even smaller sample volumes into the separation capillary or microchannel without injection errors.

The direction of my analytical work is often influenced by the wide range of analytical problems arising from diverse scientific fields. Consequently, I have developed analytical methods for the determination of many types of compounds - such as inorganic ions, element species, toxins, pharmaceutical compounds, and proteins - from a variety of sample matrices including serum, urine, tumor tissue, saliva, and surface water, using capillary electrophoresis.

In the past five years, my research has primarily focused on proteomics and toxin analysis using capillary electrophoresis coupled with mass spectrometry.
