ENVIRONMENT

  • Amino acid analysis
  • Chromatography
  • Background contamination
  • Acceptance criteria 
  • AccQ•Tag Ultra

ANSWER

The acceptance criteria for minimum and maximum levels of amino acid background contamination are set by the testing lab running the AccQ•Tag methods.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Individual labs have various levels of background amines based on their approaches to lowering contamination sources and the impact on their quantitation.

For additional information, see What should I do to prevent chromatographic contamination in amino acid kits like AccQ•Tag and Pico•Tag?

and What are the possible sources of amino acid contamination in a lab?
