SummaryThis paper discusses the use of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with indirect UV detection for the separation and detection of ions. By use of a 70 cm x 75 gm i.d. capillary at -15 kV and an electrophoretic buffer containing sodium chromate, i-butanol, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as electroosmoticflow modifier (pH 8) nine inorganic and organic anions were separated in less than 10 rain. By use of the same type of capillary at 20 kV and an electrophoretic buffer containing imidazole and 18-crown-6 (pH 5) eight cations were separated in less than 5 min. The different variables that affect the separation were studied and optimized; the compounds were detected at low mg L -1 levels after hydrodynamic injection under pressure. The method was tested with osmotically treated waters, and the results compared with those obtained by ion chromatography for anion analysis and by atomic absorption spectroscopy for cation analysis.

SFT represents an effective, well-tolerated treatment for cancer BTP. Results provide consistent evidence for the positive impact of SFT on health-related QOL and physical functioning as well as other co-morbidities of cancer BTP such as anxiety and depression.
