Microfluidic chip electrophoresis could be an ideal candidate for rapid on-site analysis as- sociated with food safety and environmental pollutions due to its advantages of low sample/reagent consumption, rapid analysis, high separation performance and easy miniaturization. This review covers the typical applications of this technique in areas of food safety and environmental analysis, in- cluding detection of harmful residues and illegal additives in foods, and determination of toxic inor- ganic ions and organic pollutants in environmental samples. The factors that limit the applications of this technique in the real-world analytical practice are discussed, and the potential ways to solve these problems are proposed.
