Amino acids, essential components of biomolecules, are not only the building blocks of proteins but also play pivotal roles in cellular metabolism, signal transduction, and energy transformation. Amino acid analysis evaluates the amino acid content in biological samples both quantitatively and qualitatively, providing vital insights for diagnosing diseases, assessing nutritional status, and advancing biotechnological research. As science progresses, Amino acid analysis has become crucial in metabolomics, enabling researchers to explore alterations in metabolic pathways and disease mechanisms.
MtoZ Biolabs employs high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) for amino acid analysis, a method noted for its exceptional resolution and sensitivity. This technique not only encompasses a comprehensive spectrum of amino acids but also investigates the nuanced changes within their metabolic pathways, substantially supporting life sciences research.
