    Amino Acids and Their Derivatives Analysis Service

      Amino acids are biologically important organic compounds, composed of amine (-NH2) and carboxylic acid (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain attached to each amino acid. Amino acid analysis is a fundamental tool in the analysis of proteins, peptides, and other amino acid-based drugs. Amino acid analysis allows for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the amino acid composition of samples and enables the determination of atypical amino acids that may be present in proteins and peptides

      MtoZ Biolabs utilizes both GC/MS (Agilent 7890A/5975C) and LC/MS/MS (AB Sciex 5500) platforms. This allows for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of over 70 types of amino acids and their derivatives, with 95% of the substances involving standard and isotopic standards for quantification.

       

      Services at MtoZ Biolabs

      The technicians at MtoZ Biolabs, through many years of technical accumulation, use both GC/MS (Agilent 7890A/5975C) and LC/MS/MS (AB Sciex 5500) platforms. This achieves quantitative and qualitative analysis of over 70 types of amino acids and their derivatives:

      Sample Submission Requirements

      1. Sample Type and Volume

      1834491314187087872-mceu_390174981221726211787022.png

      For other sample types and amounts, please contact MtoZ Biolabs.

       

      2. Sample Transportation

      Calculate with 3-4 kg of dry ice evaporating per day, please use a sufficient amount of dry ice for transportation (it is recommended to use larger pieces of dry ice, as larger pieces evaporate more slowly), and seal with a foam box. Also, try to choose a faster mailing method to reduce the possibility of sample degradation during transportation.
