Acylcarnitines Mix 2 (C4,iC4,C5,iC5,C6,C8,C10,C12,C14,C18) solution

Description

• General description: A Certified Spiking Solution® of routinely tested Butyryl-L-Carnitine, Isobutyryl-L-Carnitine, Valeryl-L-Carnitine, Isovaleryl-L-Carnitine, Hexanoyl-L-Carnitine, Octanoyl-L-Carnitine, Decanoyl-L-Carnitine, Lauroyl-L-Carnitine, Myristoyl-L-Carnitine and Stearoyl-L-Carnitine at concentrations of 100-200 μg/mL. Acylcarnitines are biomarker for many inborn errors of metabolism that cause several metabolic diseases and are routinely tested in newborn screening programs. This multi-component mix is suitable for critical quantitative applications in research and clinical environments including: for use in preparation of controls, calibrators, and linearity standards for LC-MS/MS assays; as system tuning/suitability standards; linearity verification; and internal proficiency testing. The stable, quantitative solution format provides significant benefits to the user such as convenience of use, material savings, and increased efficiency of labor. Certified concentration values for each component provides increased efficiency from less time remaking pools due to dilution errors or rerunning samples.
• Application: Metabolic Disorder Biomarker Development: Acylcarnitines are crucial in diagnosing very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. This research utilizes acylcarnitine profiles to improve understanding and treatment approaches for metabolic disorders, employing mass spectrometry metabolites for precise analysis (Bleeker JC et al., 2020).High-Purity Acylcarnitine Standards in Research: The study demonstrate the simultaneous extraction of metabolomes and lipidomes, including acylcarnitines, using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. This methodology supports high-precision studies in fatty acid oxidation and metabolic assay development (Chen S et al., 2013).Application in Inborn Errors of Metabolism Assay: The research investigates how dietary bioactive polyphenols affect the mitochondrial carnitine acylcarnitine carrier, showcasing the utility of acylcarnitines in studying the impact of natural compounds on metabolic pathways, vital for understanding inborn errors of metabolism (Console L et al., 2019).
