Frequently asked questions
Profiling soluble amino acids provides essential insights into the physiological status of plants, animals, and cell cultures. It supports scientific discoveries, improves production conditions, and enables data-driven decisions – from basic research to applied agri-biotechnology.
Our analytical platform delivers fast, sensitive, and cost-efficient results for various sample types – from plant material and animal tissues to microbial and cellular systems.
After sample receipt, amino acids are extracted, derivatized with AQC, and analyzed via UPLC for maximum resolution and sensitivity.
All results are provided as structured Excel files, including concentrations and optional graphical output. Custom reporting formats are available on request.
Yes – we offer detailed protocols for labs with in-house capabilities. Alternatively, our team can handle the preparation for you at a transparent service fee.
Harvest the plant material immediately after a defined light exposure and snap-freeze in liquid nitrogen to preserve metabolite stability.
Yes – please submit samples either freeze-dried or cooled on dry ice. We’re happy to advise you on optimal shipping conditions.
Only 5–10 mg dry weight or 25–50 mg fresh weight is typically sufficient. Smaller quantities can be processed upon request.
Absolutely – we analyze all types of biological material, including animal tissues, microorganisms, cell cultures, and fermented products.
Short run times, high sensitivity, clear data reporting, flexible sample formats, and expert consultation – with no hidden costs.
Harvest the material after defined exposure to light and freeze it immediately in liquid nitrogen. Samples should be transported frozen or lyophilized.
