The present disclosure provides electrophoretic systems, methods and compositions for spatial analysis, which can serve to magnify or demagnify spatial resolution of analytes of interest that are captured using electrophoresis. Some implementations can use a diverging or converging electric field in an electrophoretic capture system. Such a divergent or convergent electric field, as opposed to a parallel electric field, can be generated by, for example, utilizing different sizes of electrodes associated with or imbedded in substrates. Also provided herein are electrophoretic systems, methods and compositions for spatial analysis, which can serve to selectively migrate one or more analytes from a region of interest in the biological sample for capture using electrophoresis.
