In this work, an antifouling capillary modified with star-shaped poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-based copolymer was used to study the interaction between acetaminophen (APAP) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) by frontal analysis capillary electrophoresis (FACE). The star-shaped copolymer, poly(ethylene imine)-graft-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PEI-g-PMOXA), was immobilized onto the fused-silica capillary inner wall via dopamine-assisted co-deposition strategy, yielding a PEI-g-PMOXA/polydopamine (PDA)-coated antifouling capillary, i.e., an antifouling capillary coated with the PEI-g-PMOXA/PDA co-deposited film. Electroosmotic flow (EOF) mobility of the PEI-g-PMOXA/PDA-coated capillary was almost zero in a wide pH range (3.0–10.0), while the EOF mobility of bare capillary was much larger and increased significantly with pH increasing. When the PEI-g-PMOXA/PDA-coated capillary was exploited to separate a protein mixture including cytochrome c, lysozyme, ribonuclease A and α-chymotrypsinogen A, the theoretical plate numbers were of five orders of magnitude which were about ten-fold higher over those obtained with bare capillary; in addition, the RSD values of migration time were mostly less than 0.7% (30 consecutive runs) which were much smaller than those of bare capillary (c.a. 5.7%). The protein-resistant PEI-g-PMOXA/PDA-coated capillary was then used to investigate the interaction between APAP and BSA by FACE, the binding constant and number of binding sites at 25°C and pH 7.4 (Tris/HCl buffer of 25mM) were 1.39×104M−1 and 1.08, respectively, which were comparable to the results determined by fluorescence spectroscopic measurement (3.18×104M−1 and 1.19, respectively).
