Creative Proteomics can provide one-stop hexosylceramides analysis service. We have LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS technologies to provide high-resolution and reliable lipidomics identification and quantification services.
Overview
Sphingolipids are an important part of neurons and myelin sheath. Mainly divided into hexosylceramide (HexCer), lactosylceramide (LacCer), sphingosine (Sph), dihydrosphingosine (DhSph) and dihydroceramide (DhSph). Sphingolipid levels will change under different physiological, pathological and disease conditions.
The combination of MS instrument and liquid chromatography (LC) can effectively separate target lipid molecules from complex samples. High-quality and accurate lipid level analysis helps to study the changes in the content of hexosylceramides and other lipids under physiological and other pathological conditions, and accelerate the analysis of biomarkers and related disease mechanisms.
