Laminar flow profile not only introduces dispersion, but it allows a bolus/concentration profile within the capillary for electrophoretic velocities between −νave and −νmax. The location of the concentration front/bolus is a function of capillary diameter, flow rate, electrophoretic velocity and diffusion. For typical experimental systems this front is located a few hundred microns within the capillary.
