In this article we look at the health benefits of tea and theanine, and its use in functional foods. Also, discover why theanine analysis is important when assessing the quality of tea and developing new drinks and food products.
We explore the importance of lysine in diets for the health and performance of animals. We also look at why the quantification of lysine with amino acid analysis can help feed manufacturers develop feed ingredients that are optimal for livestock and kinder to the environment.
Discover the latest trends in alternative protein sources and the role of amino acid analysis when developing new feed ingredients.
Amino acid analysis can help feed manufacturers develop cost-effective, nutritionally complete and consistent solutions for optimal animal nutrition.
Cell culture is an important tool in cellular and molecular biology, as it can be used to study the behaviour of specific cell types in a controlled environment for drug screening and development, and disease modelling.
Our method of post-column detection quantifies hydroxyproline content without interference from the sample matrix.
Our method of post-column detection allows us accurately quantify very low levels of phenylalanine in food, drinks and medicinal products for those requiring a low protein diet.
We use the most robust amino acid analysis method available: separation of a mixture of amino acids using ion exchange chromatography followed by post-column photometric detection.
For the analysis of these specific amino acids in samples, AltaBioscience uses different methods that enable us to quantify them accurately.
This case study highlights the work performed by our scientists to overcome the challenges in the development of this adapted amino acid analysis method.
