Summary A simultaneous optimization of resolution, efficiency and migration times of enkephalin-related peptides in micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) was performed. Six experimental variables; the surfactant concentration, the percentage of organic modifier, the ionic strength of the buffer, the injected plug length, the applied temperature and the sample solution composition were studied via central composite design (CCD). Large differences in separation performance were observed at a commonly used level of organic modifier in the background electrolyte. Partial least squares regression of the responses revealed that the experimental domain was too large and complicated to be explained by the model. A new CCD model was obtained with improved prediction ability at narrower ranges of the experimental factors, especially of the organic modifier. A conflict between maximum resolution and efficiency within the shortest analysis time was observed. Therefore, constraints were set on maximal resolution and analysis time, while solving for maximum efficiency. Optimal operating conditions were found at 35 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 5% v/v of acetonitrile, 1.9 mm injected plug length, 35°C and sample solution with no added micelles, giving high efficiency and resolution at short analysis time. The value predicted by the model was found to agree very well to the observed values, at the optimal experimental conditions, even on a new capillary.
