Alexys Clinical Analyzer

HPLC with electrochemical detection has been established as a fast and reliable method for the determination of catecholamines. Metanephrines, serotonine and VMA, HVA & 5-HIAA in plasma and urine. Clinical kits are available from several suppliers that contain all the necessary chemicals and  materials for sample preparation and analysis. The biological samples are processed by an SPE step, followed by a wash and elution step, prior to injection onto the HPLC system. The ALEXYS Clinical Analyzer together with a commercially available sample prep kit is a proven solution for routine analysis of catecholamines. The chromatogram is an overlay of 10 analyses and shows the repeatability of the system.
