A thermal lens microscope (TLM) detection of capillary electrophoresis (CE) utilizing microchip technology was developed. Fused‐silica capillaries with an inner diameter of 50 μm were directly connected to a microchannel in a microchip. The detection limit by TLM was estimated as 2.8×10 ‐7 absorbance by measuring pure water. The detection limit of derivatized amino acids determined by CE‐TLM was estimated as 2.4×10 ‐8   M , which was 100 times lower than that of conventional absorbance detection.
