Amino Acid Analysis (AAA)
You can quantify 48 amino acids in research samples of plasma/serum or quantify 52 amino acids and creatinine in research samples of urine in one run.
- One chromatographic platform for plasma/serum and urine
- Fast sample preparation without derivatisation
- Short run times
- Excellent separation of all isobaric compounds
- Each analyte with its own internal standard
- Reaction vials or 96 deep well plates
Assays for Quantitative Amino Acid Analysis
MassChrom® Amino Acid Analysis in Plasma/Serum*
Order no. | Method | Number of tests |
Characteristics |
75111/RUO | LC-MS/MS | 3 x 96 | Assay with reaction vials |
75111/DWP/RUO | LC-MS/MS | 3 x 96 | Assay with 96 deep well plates |
One Assay - Two Test Modes
You can either measure 48 amino acids within 20 minutes, or alternatively determine the PKU/MSUD panel within 8 minutes.The analytes measured with both, the Full Panel and the PKU/MSUD Panel, are leucine, allo-isoleucine, isoleucine, methionine, phenylalanine, tyrosine and valine. Both panels use the identical chromatographic set-up and sample preparation.
MassChrom® Amino Acid Analysis in Urine*
Order no. | Method | Number of tests |

52 Amino Acids and Creatinine in One Run
This assay allows the quantitative determination of 52 amino acids/metabolites and creatinine by LC-MS/MS within 20 minutes. Creatinine is also measured within the same run, which is used for the normalisation of the urinary amino acid concentrations. This eliminates the need for the time-consuming photometric determination and subsequent dilution of the sample. The assay can be ideally combined with our plasma assay without needing to change the chromatographic set-up.
