Introducing an electric field into chromatography on hydroxyapatite (HAP) was attempted in order to enhance mass transfer and separation performance. A membrane spaced multicompartment electrolyzer was developed for electrochromatography on HAP. The high performance of liquid transport by electroosmotic flux was identified and described in terms of dynamic electroosmotic pressure. The application of the electric field resulted in an improved adsorption of bovine serum albumin as shown by the breakthrough curve as function of the electric field. An improved elution was also obtained in the presence of the electric field. The results show that electroosmosis is a powerful tool of liquid transport and dispersion in a packed bed of fine particles and has potential in the large-scale chromatography of biological molecules.
