ECOM ECS05 Gradient Analytical System

The Amino Acid Analysis System ECA AMINO 500 – is a complete solution for automated amino acid analysis. The system is specifically used for identification and quantification of amino acids in protein hydrolysates and peptides, of free amino acids in physiological liquids and extracts, as well as for biogenic amines detection.
Applications: These features make the ECA AMINO 500 predestined for a wide range of use in biochemical research, in research in human and animal nutrition, diagnostics in medicine, and control of pharmaceuticals, food, and feed – as well as in standardized processes (e.g. ISO 03 139).

The system provides the highest accuracy and reproducibility. It uses very accurate and robust chromatographic methods low-pressure ion exchange chromatography with post-column derivatization with ninhydrin and photometric detection. Possible customization of the system, helps customers to use it for a wide range of amino acids.

The analyzer uses a 2-channel spectrophotometer detector, a 6-fold gradient, and an 8-channel degasser, which can optionally be equipped with a chilled sample rack, with a heated column thermostat.
