This laboratory offers highly accurate and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem. mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) methods for quantification of various neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, and hormones across vertebrate tissues. All methods for glucocorticoids provide a glucocorticoid profile including the dominant hormone, its precursors and phase I metabolites applicable in acute and chronic stress physiological research across vertebrates. All methods were developed in an EN ISO/IEC 17025 regulated environment and validated according the requirements of the Commission Decision No. 2002/657/EC. This to ensure full traceability of materials and overall quality of results.
Major parameters:
- Glucocorticoid profiles (unique and patented methods)
- Other steroids
- Neurotransmitters & Neuromodulators
Major Equipment:
- SPE units, turbovap, etc.
- UPLC-MS/MS
