Abstract
Students measure the diffusion coefficient of dopamine (3-hydroxytyramine) by capillary electrophoresis using three evaluation methods: single-point, graphical, and stopped migration. The experiment combines instruction of modern instrumentation with the determination of a biologically significant physical constant.
Supplement
Instructions for the students and notes for the instructor are available.
