Bioclinical Analysis

Restek has produced an application note introducing a simple solid-phase extraction procedure for the simultaneous analysis of catecholamines and metanephrines in urine that is suitable for high-throughput clinical diagnostics.

UCT has produced an application note outlining a suggested procedure that reduces column backpressure while also reducing analyte suppression, when compared to a standard dilute and shoot protocol. Using UCT’s Refine™ Ultra-Filtration Technology...

This study demonstrates the use of flow-modulated GC×GC to analyse complex cannabis extracts, with simultaneous detection by TOF MS for confident identification and FID for robust quantitation.

Agilent Technologies has produced an application note describing the absolute quantification of snake venom proteins. Using capillary LC to separate the proteins, followed by sulfur determination using isotope dilution ICP-QQQ, accurate...

Biotage has produced an application note describing the extraction of a panel of steroid hormones from human serum using ISOLUTE^® SLE+ Supported Liquid Extraction plates prior to LC/MS-MS analysis.

Coinciding with the celebration of its 50th anniversary of its presence in Europe this year, Shimadzu has released the UV-1900 UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Equipped with an ultrafast scan function that enables data acquisition of 29,000 nm/min (it...

The use of contrast media in non-invasive diagnostics facilitates targeted imaging of organs and distinction between healthy and unhealthy tissue. One differentiates between contrast media for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray examinations....

Biotage has produced an application note describing the extraction of the peptides oxytocin and vasopressin from serum using a fast, simple EVOLUTE EXPRESS load-wash-elute SPE procedure and achieving high reproducible extraction recoveries.
