Chemical Industry
Amino acid analyzers are valuable instruments in the chemical industry, offering precise and reliable analysis of amino acids. Their applications span across quality control, protein analysis, biochemical research, and more.
Environmental Industry
The SCION Artemis 6000 Amino Acid Analyzer represents an invaluable asset within the environmental industry, serving as a highly acclaimed tool employed for a wide array of tests necessitating amino acid analysis.
Pharmaceutical Industry
SCION Artemis 6000 Amino Acid Analyzer is a versatile technique commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry. For example, some Amino Acids are used for therapy, including Arginine, Aspartate, Cysteine, Glutamic Acid, Histidine and Methionine. Amino Acids are also the building blocks for synthesis of drugs, especially peptide based drugs.
Its applications extend to various critical areas, including the rigorous quality control of amino acid-enriched supplements, the intricate process of formulating pharmaceutical products, the advancement of peptide-based drug development, as well as the meticulous examination of proteins.
As a multifunctional instrument, the SCION Artemis 6000 Amino Acid Analyzer proves indispensable for researchers and professionals seeking accurate and reliable amino acid analysis in their pursuit of advancing pharmaceutical science and maintaining stringent quality standards.
Food Industry
Food and agriculture are two of the most important application areas of Amino Acid Analysis. In the food industry, especially the food production process and new product development, the nutrition value and taste are the most crucial factors. For example, in process improvement, a comparison of Amino Acids before and after the process changed in required to evaluate the new process. The analysis of Amino Acids for new product development is also crucial before launching in the market.
In agriculture, the main application of Amino Acid Analyzer is mainly for feedstuff analysis and thremmatology studies.
SCION Artemis 6000 Amino Acid Analyzer provides both Protein Hydrolysate (PH) and Physiological Fluids (PF) systems for the food industry. The PH system is mainly for feedstuff, including the oxidised protein hydrolysate specially optimised for sulfur containing Amino Acids such as Lysine, Threonine, Cystine and Methionine. The PF system is for determination of free Amino Acids in food/nutrition products. Both system are completed package with relevant buffer, reagent and columns together with verified method.
What modules are available for the S433?
There are four main modules available for the S433 amino acid analyser:
- Quaternary Pump
- Autosampler
- Reaction and detection module
- Reagent organiser
What are the key features of the Quaternary Pump?
- Automated tools support up to 120 samples.
- Integrated thermostat for constant temperatures and sample cooling.
- Exchangeable PEEK sample loop.
- Fixed and variable volume injection mode.
- Optional with pre-column derivation/dilution mode.
- Inter materials contact with budder solutions & samples to avoid interference.
What are the key features of the Reaction and Detection Module?

What system builds are available for the S433?
The whole system can be customised to meet your needs. Three example builds are:
Protein Hydrolysates
Protein hydrolysates system is designed for determination of amino acids which hydrolysed from protein or peptides in the sample. This system is one of the most widely used configuration, has and hydrolysed amino acids (except sulphur containing amino acids). Various pre-configured methods are ready for the unusual amino acids and peptides which may appear in the sample
Oxidised Protein Hydrolysates
The oxidised protein hydrolysates system is an important complementation of common protein hydrolysates. Columns with a buffer kit specially optimized for sulfur-containing amino acids such as lysine, threonine, cystine and methionine can be rapidly eluted and identified. It provides essential information for the adjustments to the formulation of products, e.g. feedstuff and nutrition products.
Physiological Fluids
The system designed for physiological fluids emphasises a wider range of 48+ amino acids in one run, including physiologically important amino acids which can be treated as biomarkers or indicators for early detection of some diseases like hereditary metabolic disorders, and monitoring the treatment programs. It also can be a powerful tool for monitoring the effectiveness of nutrient absorption.
