In our laboratories, automated liquid handling by sequential injection (SI) has been developed as a front end to modern analytical instrumentation and coupled to capillary electrophoresis (CE). In order to resort to the favourable synergetic aspects of SI and CE and to complement/broaden the portfolio of automated DBS analytical set-ups, the actual contribution presents a novel proof-of-concept study for a fully automated DBS analysis platform. To this end, a complete DBS is autonomously eluted with an SI system (thus free from haematocrit/non-homogeneity effects), which is at-line coupled to the internal port of a CE autosampler. The two commercial instruments are interconnected through standard tubing, ferrules, and nuts, require no additional instrumental adjustments, are operated by dedicated software, and are synchronized for full automation. The SI-CE coupling offers a reliable and unattended handling of minute reagents and sample volumes, rapid analysis, and sufficient sensitivity for the determination of endogenous and exogenous compounds in DBSs. The proposed concept reflects the actual analytical trends in automation and provides a general solution to modern clinical analysis as it can be applied to a broad range of analytes and dried biological materials.
