Sensitive, selective, peptide and protein bioanalysis
The rise in large molecule biotherapeutics, which are more complex and challenging to analyze, has increased the demand for peptide bioanalysis using mass spectrometry. High resolution accurate mass orbitrap technology provides ultimate selectivity for the analysis of biotheraputic peptide based products. A unique combination of innovative technologies provides a workflow with superior quantitative accuracy and sensitivity.

The InsuQuant Mass Spectrometric Kit is an affinity purification clean-up kit used to extract endogenous insulin and exogenous insulin analogues from plasma for further analysis in LC-MS. Porous microcolumns are coated with an insulin-specific affinity ligand, targeted to capture insulin and its exogenous analogues. Through repeated pipetting of the matrix, the analyte of interest is put into contact with the antibody-coated surface on the microcolumn.
Obtain high quality analytical results from protein digests by using Thermo Scientific SMART Digest Kits. A significant advance in sample preparation for biopharmaceutical and protein research, the kits provide fast and simple protein digestion with high reproducibility, high sensitivity, and high levels of data quality in a format that is compatible with automation. SMART Digest kits result in less autolysis than from traditional in-solution trypsin digestion, and usually results in no unspecific cleavage. The digestion enzyme can be use in excess so there’s no need for careful measurement. This means vastly accelerated proteolysis and no enzyme to substrate adjustment.
Remove variability and optimize high throughput laboratory workflows. Thermo Scientific SOLAµ Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) Plates are designed for bioanalytical and clinical research analysts who require clean, reproducible, and robust sample extraction using very low sample and solvent volumes in high throughput workflows. SOLAµ Well Plates achieve this due to the unique and award winning innovative frit-less SPE technology.
