Our company offers "fatty acid analysis" for trace samples such as blood cells and other precious samples. Measuring the proportion of each fatty acid contained in lipids and the amount of each fatty acid can provide insights into the condition of each sample. Fatty acid analysis may yield new findings, so please feel free to contact us. [Analysis Objectives (Excerpt)] ■ Meat: Evaluation of fatty acid composition ratios based on tissue/species differences ■ Plants: Evaluation of fatty acid composition ratios based on species differences ■ Microorganisms: Evaluation of fatty acid composition based on differences in habitat ■ Algae: Measurement of fatty acid content and composition ratios ■ Tea: Evaluation of fatty acid composition ratios based on processing methods *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce our "Fatty Acid Analysis by Type of Lipid" that we conduct. The extracted lipids contain various lipid classes with different properties, and by fractionating them by class, it becomes possible to focus the analysis on the desired fraction. TLC is a method that uses a stationary phase, such as silica gel coated on glass or aluminum, and a mobile phase using organic solvents to separate and fractionate substances. 【Point: What can be understood from TLC fractionation】 ■ I want to get an overview of what types of lipids are included. ■ I want to understand the lipid composition and approximate quantities. ■ I want to separate the desired lipid class. ■ I want to confirm the quantitative changes in lipid classes. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce our "Fatty Acid Composition Analysis." The detection sensitivity for each fatty acid varies depending on the equipment used. To correct for these differences, we measure standard samples to determine correction factors and calculate the corrected area from the measured area. We then use this corrected area to determine the content of each fatty acid. We conduct fatty acid analysis on a variety of samples, including fresh foods, grains, processed and fermented foods, animal tissues, plant tissues, blood, cells, bacteria, culture media, feed, and excrement. 【Test Overview】 ■ Target Fatty Acids - Analysis is conducted using standard samples for 36 components, including oleic acid, palmitic acid, vaccenic acid, EPA, and DHA. ■ Data - Reports are provided along with an Excel file. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Equipment Used: GC/MS Our company conducts "quantitative analysis of fatty acids" contained in lipids. We create a calibration curve using standard samples to calculate the fatty acid concentration. The fatty acid concentration will be reported in units such as "mg/g" or "mg/mL." For the target fatty acids, we perform quantitative analysis using all standard samples for 36 components, including oleic acid, palmitic acid, vaccenic acid, EPA, and DHA. We also conduct quantitative analysis for specific fatty acids. [Point] ■ Changes in fatty acid levels during food processing ■ Differences between wild types and genetically modified organisms ■ Changes in cell quantities due to culture conditions ■ Changes in fatty acid levels in the medium before and after culture *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Using Equipment: GC/MS We would like to introduce our "Fatty Acid Analysis of Animal Tissues (Cells)." We conduct analysis of fatty acid composition in tissues such as muscle, fat, and organs, as well as in blood cells and cultured cells, and analyze specific fatty acid components. Our company performs fatty acid analysis on various samples including fresh foods, grains, processed and fermented foods, animal tissues, plant tissues, blood, cells, bacteria, culture media, feed, and waste. [Analysis Example] ■ Cultured Cells: Human Immortalized Keratinocytes *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce our "Fatty Acid Analysis of Plant Tissues." We conduct analysis of the fatty acids contained in plant tissues (cells). Measuring the proportion of each fatty acid in lipids and the quantity of each fatty acid can provide insights into the condition of each sample. Please feel free to contact us when you need our services. [Analysis Examples] ■ Edible Oil Fatty Acids ■ Olive Oil *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce our "Fatty Acid Analysis of Microorganisms." We conduct fatty acid analysis of lipids from microorganisms such as bacteria, plankton, and algae. Measuring the proportion of each fatty acid contained in the lipids and the amount of each fatty acid helps us understand the condition of each sample. We perform fatty acid analysis on various samples, including fresh foods, grains, processed and fermented foods, animal tissues, plant tissues, blood, cells, bacteria, culture media, feed, and excrement. [Analysis Example] ■Microorganism: Staphylococcus epidermidis *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

Our company conducts "fatty acid analysis of the insect body surface." Insects are covered by an exoskeleton, and lipid components are secreted on their surface as wax to protect them from drying out. Additionally, it is believed that there are fatty acid compositions related to the unique individual recognition of insects. In the downloadable materials, you can find the results of the extraction and fatty acid analysis of the lipids from the body surface of stink bugs. Please take a look. [Analysis Examples] - Conducted analysis of fatty acid components on the insect body surface and fatty acid components in microorganisms. - Analysis Method: - Extraction: Chloroform-methanol mixed extraction - Derivatization: Methyl esterification - Analysis Equipment: GC/MS (Agilent Technologies) *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the measurement of "differences in fatty acid composition by fish part" that we conduct. Measuring the proportion of each fatty acid contained in the lipids of each part and the amount of each fatty acid allows us to understand the differences in the proportions of fatty acids in each part. Here, we present the results of measurements regarding the differences in fatty acid composition of various parts of the fish. [Analysis Example] ■ Fatty acid composition analysis of each part of the Pacific saury (raw) ■ Parts: Flesh (belly), Flesh (back), Skin, Around the eyes *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the measurement of "differences in fatty acid composition by type of tea leaves" that we conduct. Tea is basically made from the same tea leaves, but the manufacturing processes differ. Sencha is made without fermentation, while oolong tea and black tea undergo fermentation processes. As a result, the proportions of fatty acids in the lipids contained in each type of tea and the amounts of each fatty acid vary. Here, we present the results of measurements regarding the differences in fatty acid composition by type of tea leaves. [Analysis Example] - Analysis of fatty acid composition by type for sencha, matcha, oolong tea, and black tea. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
