Our Services
At the Bio-Analysis Centre we pride ourselves on offering Academia and Industry a comprehensive service which aims to produce the best results. We know that different people require different services and therefore we have put together a training programme to enable scientists to run their own schedule of testing.
Our equipment ranges from Mass Spectrometry and HPLC to HPCE. The types of testing this enables varies from Eicosinoids through to Iohexol identification.
Please do get in touch if you have any questions or a sample that needs analysing. We have many years of experience in analysing samples and assisting clients achieve their analytical aims.
We use the Shimadzu Nexera XR HPLC system. These instruments have cooled autosamplers (for sample integrity) and Photo-Diode Array detectors, which can be used for compound analysis from small drug-like molecules to proteins. This instrument provides the optimal solution for a diverse range of applications. Due to the modular design of these systems, other detectors can be added as required, for example Evaporative Light Scattering (ELS), Refractive Index (RI) or Fluorescence. More pump modules could also be added if required.
We use a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Shimadzu LCMS-8040) with highly sensitivity, reliable and fast results. We have extensive experience and knowledge in method development for new compounds along with excellent expertise in interpretation of results – providing a complete service to your analytical requirements. If required, another detection mode can be added, for example UV, Fluorescence or Refractive Index (RI) to complement the mass data.
We use one of deltaDOT’s latest instruments (HPCE-512) which separates and analyses a wide range of samples - from small molecules and amino acids, through to proteins and virus-like particles. It uses an advanced form of label free Capillary Electrophoresis which produces faster, higher quality results at a fraction of the cost of many other approaches.
We are extremely proud of the work we do in the Academic Sector, and we have been given authorship on papers published by our academic collaborators.
HPLC and LCMS Application Notes
WE have a list of Application Notes that cover topics about life sciences, environment and food safety.
These are only a few of the methods which the Bio-Analysis Centre has ready to run when necessary. If you have a question about another compound for analysis please contact us. The Bio-Analysis Centre helps to address clients unique requirements.
