Comprehensive Vitamin Profiling Service
Vitamins are essential micronutrients required for maintaining normal metabolism and physiological functions in organisms. Based on their solubility, they are primarily classified into two major categories:
- Water-Soluble Vitamins: This group includes B-complex vitamins (such as B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, B12) and Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). They dissolve in water, are not stored in significant amounts within the body, and require regular dietary intake. Their primary role is to act as coenzymes in crucial biochemical reactions, including energy metabolism and DNA synthesis.
- Fat-Soluble Vitamins: This group comprises Vitamins A, D, E, and K. They dissolve in fats and can be stored in body tissues, primarily in the liver and adipose tissue. They play key roles in functions such as vision, bone health, antioxidant defense, and blood coagulation.
Accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of various vitamins is critical, whether for assessing individual nutritional status, researching the mechanisms of metabolic diseases, or developing fortified foods, functional cosmetics, and quality animal feed. Leveraging advanced LC-MS/MS platforms, we offer targeted metabolomics services for vitamin detection, providing you with a high-sensitivity and high-accuracy analytical solution.
Our Services
Creative Diagnostics provides accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of the following two major vitamin categories:
| Vitamin Category | Primary Detection Targets |
| Water-Soluble Vitamins | B-Complex Vitamins: Thiamine (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin/Niacinamide (B3), Pantothenic Acid (B5), Pyridoxine/Pyridoxal/Pyridoxamine (B6), Biotin (B7), Folic Acid (B9), Cobalamin (B12), etc. Vitamin C: Ascorbic Acid, Dehydroascorbic Acid, etc. |
| Fat-Soluble Vitamins | Vitamin A: Retinol, Retinyl esters, etc. Vitamin D: Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol), Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol), and their metabolites. Vitamin E: α/β/γ/δ-tocopherols and tocotrienols. Vitamin K: Vitamin K1 (Phylloquinone), Vitamin K2 (Menaquinones, e.g., MK-4, MK-7), etc. |
We can tailor detection packages to your specific research needs, offering focused analysis on specific vitamin groups or a comprehensive full-spectrum vitamin profile.
Service Advantages
Our service is built upon advanced LC-MS/MS technology, enabling the simultaneous, highly sensitive, and accurate quantification of multiple water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins within a single sample. The method features an exceptionally wide linear dynamic range, allowing for precise measurement of targets with vastly different concentration levels. Coupled with our high-throughput workflow, we ensure rapid project turnaround times. We offer comprehensive vitamin detection panels that address the core needs of both research and industry, ultimately delivering a reliable analytical report complete with raw data and professional interpretation to empower your decision-making with solid data support.
Workflow
You present your detection requirements, and we work together to finalize the target analytes, sample types, and quantities.
We provide detailed guidelines for sample collection, processing, storage, and transportation to ensure sample integrity.
Service details are confirmed, and an agreement is signed. Upon arrival, samples are logged and undergo quality inspection.
Standardized sample preparation is performed, followed by targeted quantitative analysis using our LC-MS/MS platform.
Data from quality control and test samples are processed and quantified, leading to the generation and delivery of a professional analysis report.
We provide necessary interpretation and Q&A support regarding the report contents.
