Shimadzu micro Vickers hardness testers are equipped with excellent automatic reading functions and visually straightforward, convenient software. In addition, an extensive lineup of options is available to accommodate a variety of needs.

This is the 100th anniversary of manufacturing Shimadzu testing machines.
The AGX series is the culmination of the further evolution of the AUTOGRAPH based on our wealth of experience and achievements

Amino acid composition analysis has traditionally been conducted for protein quantitation and peptide structure prediction. Its use has also extended in recent years to the quantitation of such functional components as branched chain amino acids (BCAA). Previously, in Application News No. L432 and L437, we introduced examples of analysis of amino acids subjected to fluorescence derivatization using o-phthalaldehyde (OPA) using the SIL-30AC. Here, we introduce an example of fast analysis of amino acids in proteins.
