The cause of the increasing current during your capillary electrophoresis experiment could be due to several factors. One possibility is that air bubbles have been introduced into the system

Another potential issue is fluctuations in electroosmotic flow, which can lead to poor repeatability of migration times

Thank you guys for your answers.

I later found out that my capillary was broken at the detection window. On changing the capillary, I do not have this problem anymore.
