Bioanalysis

High-throughput fatty acid analysis

– 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…) – Gangliosides


Method development & validation

– 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
