v-innovate Technologies provides liquid chromatogram-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) based methods for dicoumarol analysis, which provides sufficient stability, sensitivity and high resolution for identification and quantification of dicoumarol. This approach has the advantages of simple, stable, fast, accurate, specific and reproducible, which can help researchers to analyze dicoumarol effectively.
The parent of coumarin is a bicyclic compound formed by the combination of benzene ring and oxyheterocyclic ring, on which a class of substances is derived, collectively referred to as coumarin. Dicoumarol is one of the most important substances. Dicoumarol widely distributes in plants and is one of the main bean flavor, which is often used in daily flavor. Dicoumarol has the function of dilating coronary arteries, inhibiting tumor and defending against ultraviolet burn. In addition to the physiological activity for the treatment of some diseases, dicoumarol also has some physiological toxicity to organisms. The toxicity of dicoumarol is due to the chemical structure of its parent. Oxygen atoms in the mother have strong activity due to the coupling of double bonds, which is easy to trigger the generation of oxygen free radicals in the body, damage the body, and produce toxicity. Because dicoumarol exists widely and has certain toxicity, it is very important to establish the method for the analysis of dicoumarol in drugs, food, daily chemicals and plant metabolites. v-innovate Technologies provides the simple, rapid, accurate, affordable and highly automated analytical method and equipment to analyse dicoumarol. Liquid chromatogram-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) can solve some of the problems associated with dicoumarol analysis. Improved extraction and purification steps can also increase the sensitivity of the analytical method.
Our newly developed sample preprocessing method provides safety, environmental protection, rapidness, effectiveness, and recovery rates consistently exceeding 85%. Sample preprocessing at v-innovate Technologies complies with the in-house standard operation procedures (SOP), ensuring maximized homogeneity between samples.
