Determination of Fat and Fatty Acids in Plant Samples
Lifeasible uses high-performance liquid chromatography to identify and detect samples, which can efficiently and accurately detect the changes of crude fat and fatty acid components in plant samples. And for common fat or above similar substances, can be combined with the standard for detection, for rare fat molecules, such as the provision of standard samples, Lifeasible can provide customized testing. Besides, Lifeasible also provides biochemical methods, GC-MS, LC-MS, and other methods to determine crude fat and fatty acid components in plant samples to meet the different needs of customers around the world.
Figure 1. Structural representation of several fatty acids.
Fat is not only the component of somatic cells but also the carrier of fat-soluble vitamins. Fat-soluble vitamins An and vitamin D must be transported in the body with fat as a solvent. Crude fat refers to substances that can be extracted with ether, including true lipids and lipids (such as sterols, phospholipids, etc.). Fatty acids are the simplest lipids and are the components of many complex lipids. Under the condition of sufficient oxygen supply, fatty acids can oxidize and decompose and release a lot of energy, so fatty acids are one of the main energy sources of the body.
What We Offer
Category | Name | Sample Requirement |
---|---|---|
Fats and fatty acids in plant samples | Determination and analysis of crude fat in plant samples | Fresh plant materials, > 5g |
Determination and analysis of fatty acids in plant samples | Dried plant materials, > 10g | |
There is no restriction on plant varieties. The experimental samples will not be returned, please back them up by yourself. Before sampling, it is necessary to set up the control group and the experimental group, and each group is suggested to repeat more than 3 times. For varieties with special requirements or rare varieties, please contact our staff for more information. |
*Quick-frozen preservation with liquid nitrogen can minimize the leakage time of plant samples at room temperature.
After receiving the order, we will carry out your project as soon as possible and at the end of the project, we will provide a detailed technical report, including relevant experimental steps, relevant parameters of the experiment, original pictures, original data, and accurate and reliable experiment results.
