Amino Acid Analysis Service

Amino acids are a class of organic compounds containing a basic amino group and an acidic carboxyl group. As the fundamental building blocks of proteins, they are essential nutrients for sustaining life activities. The 20 amino acids found in the human body can be categorized into three groups: essential amino acids, conditionally essential amino acids, and non-essential amino acids. Beyond their role in protein synthesis, they play critical roles in key physiological processes such as metabolism, neurotransmitter transmission, energy metabolism, and immune and endocrine regulation. Precise analysis of amino acid levels has become an important tool across multiple fields, including biomedical research, clinical diagnostics, nutritional assessment, and agricultural food science.
