Time required for a liquid in a capillary to move due to
electro-osmosis through the effective length of the capillary,

.
This
time is usually measured as the
migration time of a neutral compound,
called an electro-osmotic flow
marker which is assumed to have an
electro-osmotic
mobility that is negligible compared to that of the
analyte.
