The invention concerns a method for free solution capillary electrophoresis at an alkaline pH to analyze samples comprising haemoglobin, in which the sample is passed through a capillary containing an analysis buffer, comprising at least one step in which the sample is introduced into a capillary tube containing a solution of analysis buffer, characterized in that the buffer is of the zwitterionic type and in that it is associated with at least one flow inhibitor. It also concerns the use of CE flow inhibitors associated with at least one zwitterionic buffer, and a kit for analyzing haemoglobin by capillary electrophoresis.
