Free Amino Acid & Protein Hydrolysate Analysis in Just Under 20 Minutes
21 Feb 2007Product news
EZ:faast® LC/MS kits have been developed for the analysis of more than 60 aliphatic and aromatic amino acids, di-peptides, and related compounds in just under 20 minutes.
Each kit provides the reagents and supplies for the sample preparation, derivatization and LC/MS analysis of 384 samples from complex matrices or protein hydrolysates. Additionally, the EZ:faast method offers a standard 8 minute procedure for sample preparation and derivatization, elimination of labor-intensive protein and urea removal procedures, excellent method reproducibility (RSD<1%) and quantitation down to 1 nmol/mL.

Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis. Find the best LC-MS equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.
