Analytics
We offer high-quality analytical services for more than 20 years by quantifying nutrients and their metabolites in different types of biological samples from pre-clinical and clinical studies.
From method development through biological sample analysis, we provide accurate and reliable data helping you to progress and take decisions.
High-throughput fatty acid analysis
– Fatty acid analysis in plasma, RBC, adipose tissue, breast milk, faeces, bacteria, virus, algae samples
– Fatty acid analysis of Dried Blood Spot (DBS) samples
– Omega-3 Index on blood or DBS samples
– Fatty acid analysis of Dried Milk Spot (DMS)
Targeted lipid metabolite analysis
– Omega-3 fatty acids
– Omega-6 fatty acids
– Conjugated linoleic acid isomers (CLA)
– Trans fatty acids (TFA)
– Medium chain fatty acids (MCFA)
– Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) in fecal and blood samples
– Lipid classes profile (incl. triacylglycerols, free fatty acids, monoacylglycerols, diacylglycerols & phospholipids)
– Sterols (cholesterol & phytosterols)
– Bile acids
– Liposoluble nutrients (Vit, A, D, E, CoQ10, carotenoids…)
– Bioactive LC-PUFA metabolites (eicosanoids, linoprostanes…)
Method development & validation
– Development of robust methods in various biological matrices
– Writing of protocols and standard operating procedures (SOP)
– Development of standard reference sample
– Method validation in compliance with ICH guidelines incl. accuracy & precision, recovery, specificity & selectivity, limit of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ), Linearity range, robustness & stability
– Transfer of the method in your laboratory
