Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of using multi-component mixtures?
The following lists a few of the top merits of using multi-component mixtures: eases user implementation, reduces development time and cost, enhances data quality, improves reproducibility, and improves confidence in the analytical results.
How many TCA intermediates and cycle offshoot metabolites comprise these mixes?
There are 6 TCA cycle intermediates and 7 offshoot metabolites. Please see the TCA Cycle Metabolomics Mixtures flyer for the metabolite panels. For a visual representation, the figure above illustrates the metabolites and pathways covered by the two TCA cycle mixes. Note that the applicable metabolites to the mixes are in red, while the compounds not included in the TCA mixes are in gray.
What is an example solvent for dissolving the TCA mixes?
The mix can be dissolved in LC-MS grade water. Reconstituting a given vial in 1 mL will yield an equimolar concentration of 100 µM.
How have the TCA mixes been measured?
Working solutions of these mixes (e.g., at 10 µM) have been measured by various analytical techniques. The mixes, for example, have been analyzed individually and in various ratio combinations by MS1 and MS2 on a HRAM mass spectrometer.
Can custom mixes or add-on vials be formulated?
Yes, we have the ability to customize. We would first review feasibility and then provide a quotation on your specific mix. To start this process, please provide the necessary details on this custom mix request form or contact your local sales representative.
