Neo Gen Screening and Cambridge Isotope Laboratories have recently produced stable isotope internal standards to meet your needs in the tandem mass spectrometry applications in newborn screening of acylcarnitines and amino acids metabolites. Twenty of the highest quality acylcarnitine and amino acid standards are synthesized and validated for exceptional purity and accurate enrichments. These standards are available in either of 2 kits containing 10 vials of dry standard prepared from premixed, certified solutions of L-amino acids (kit A) or L-carnitine and acylcarnitines (kit B). Our standards are designed to help insure the most accurate analysis of important diagnostic markers in screening today.
- Each vial, when reconstituted, contains certified concentrations of high purity stable isotope labeled internal standards.
- Using published sample preparation methods (see references below), each kit will provide enough standards for preparation of approximately 10,000 blood spots when using a single 3/16" diameter punch.
Blood volume from the excised spots is the determinant of i.s. consumption rate, ie 5,000 samples can be prepared using two 3/16" diameter punches 15.2 uL whole blood, 10,000 samples can be prepared using one 3/16" diameter blood punch 7.6 uL on S&S 903 Filter Paper.
- Each vial and kit is color coded to reduce the possibility of error.
- Each kit can be used individually for selective screening or in combination for comprehensive screening.
