UF-Amino Station
LC/MS Ultra Fast Amino Acid Analysis System
A variety of separation and detection methods are used in amino acid analysis via HPLC. When multiple amino acids are subjected to a batch analysis, considerable time is required for separation, which reduces sample throughput. UF-Amino Station, which was developed in collaboration with Ajinomoto Co., Ltd., uses a special high-speed and high-separation column and the LCMS-2020 mass spectrometer, to perform batch analyses of 38* amino acids and amino acid-related components in a mere 9 minutes. Derivatization reactions are performed automatically, so tedious manual procedures are not required. UF-Amino Station is particularly effective in the field of biochemistry, where analyses of culture media, plasma, and other biological samples are required.
*Allows the analysis of 38 amino acid-related components, such as anserine, citrulline, taurine, and GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid), in addition to the 20 major amino acid components.
This product is currently available only in Japan. Please contact your local Shimadzu representative if you are interested.
