    Summary
    A flow injection-capillary electrophoresis system with contactless conductivity detection and hydrostatic-pressure-generated flow was used for the fast and sensitive speciation of Se(IV) and Se(VI). The sample throughput was 25samples per hour using a background electrolyte solution containing 8.75mM l-histidine (His) adjusted to pH4.00 with acetic acid. The repeatability of peak areas (n=8) was better than 1.41% and the limits of detection were 190μgL−1 and 7.5μgL−1 for Se(IV) and Se(VI), respectively. The interference from carbonate, typically present in water samples, was eliminated by using a low-pH electrolyte in which carbonate is uncharged and migrates at the EOF front. The method was applied to the analysis of Se(IV) and Se(VI) in soil samples that were spiked with both selenium species and the results for recovery of both selenium species were in good agreement with their introduced concentrations
