Eagle Biosciences, Inc. is pleased to announce the product launch of 7 new Vitamin HPLC Assay Kits. These high quality kits provide results in under an hour while cost per sample remains affordable. Included in this launch are: Vitamin A & Vitamin E HPLC Assay, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine Pyrophosphate) HPLC Assay, Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) HPLC Assay, Vitamin B6 HPLC Assay, Vitamin C HPLC Assay, 25-OH Vitamin D HPLC Assay, and Vitamin K1 HPLC Assay. To complete the product offerings, HPLC columns and controls are also available through Eagle Biosciences.

Dan Keefe, President of Eagle Biosciences, is thrilled about the launch of these kits, “This is an exciting time for Eagle. In the last few months, we have launched the innovative Mouse Monoclonal Antibody Isotyping ELISA along with the unique Cytokeratin Assays from IDL Biotech and now we are proud to introduce these high quality vitamin assays that are as simple to run as they are cost effective.”

Eagle anticipates offering promotional pricing in the coming months for researchers measuring Vitamin A, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, 25-OH Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K1. These assay kits are currently for research use only.

Eagle Biosciences announces the product launch of 3 new assays to measure ADMA, SDMA, and L-Arginine in serum and plasma samples. The 3 ELISA kits include ADMA ELISA, the most widely published ADMA assay on the market, SDMA ELISA with a sensitivity of 0.05 µmol/L, and ADMA & Arginine ELISA which is intended for the quantitative determination of both endogenous ADMA as well as L-Arginine in EDTA-Plasma on 2 different 96-well microplates.

Previously, ADMA was measured by HPLC or LC-MS methods that were focused on the chromatographic separation of the structurally similar but functionally different SDMA and ADMA isomers. These HPLC methods were successful, but were largely expensive and laborious. This ADMA ELISA kit was developed with a very specific and sensitive rabbit anti-ADMA antibody that allows for excellent correlation with these LC-MS methods. ADMA is the abbreviation for asymmetric dimethylarginine while SDMA is the abbreviation for symmetric dimethylarginine.

“Eagle is very excited to now offer the ADMA, SDMA, and the new ADMA / Arginine ELISA kits”, said Dan Keefe, President of Eagle Biosciences. “These are the best ADMA assays in the world because they are easy to perform with virtually no cross reactivity to other forms of arginine while still correlating with LC-MS. This is great news for researchers.”

Eagle is offering promotional pricing for the next few months for researchers measuring ADMA, SDMA, or Arginine. These assay kits are currently for research use only. Check out the Eagle website www.EagleBio.com or call 866-411-8023 for full details.

Eagle Biosciences is excited to announce the introduction of a new assay for 25-OH Vitamin D by enzyme linked immunoassay (ELISA). Adding to their menu of more than 200 Assays, Eagle adds the 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D ELISA to other vitamin assays for Vitamin A/E, Vitamin C, Vitamin K1, as well as Vitamins B1, B2, and B6.

With millions of tests performed annually, 25-OH Vitamin D remains one of the fastest growing assays in the US. This new assay offered by Eagle is unique because it offers 100% cross reactivity with both major isomers of Vitamin D: Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3 as well as offering outstanding sensitivity to 1.9 ng/mL.

“We are thrilled to be offering this 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D ELISA to the US market. We now can offer researchers a tool that can provide results in less than 3 hours using a simple ELISA format while still maintaining the most competitive pricing in the industry.” said Dan Keefe, President at Eagle. He continued,”Most 25-OH Vitamin D assays are either geared toward the high-throughput users or are strictly research assays that require extraordinary conditions like long incubation times or a 37°C incubation. Our new 25-OH Vitamin D ELISA blends the usability and convenience of clinical assays with the pricing and sensitivity of a research assay.”

Eagle anticipates offering promotional pricing in the coming months for researchers measuring 25-OH Vitamin D. These assay kits are currently for research use only. Check out the Eagle website www.EagleBio.com or call 866-411-8023 for full details.
