Happy couples: A new hybrid technique, capillary electrophoresis combined with online detection through electrothermal atomic absorption spectroscopy, allows the study of metal speciation and metal–biomolecule interactions, important aspects of metallomics. Advantages include complete sample introduction, nanoliter sample and reagent consumption, real-time detection, high sensitivity, and low cost.
