Valeric Acid Analysis Service

Valeric acid is also known as pentanoic acid. It is a straight-chain alkyl carboxylic acid. Its chemical formula is C5H10O2. Valeric acid has a very unpleasant odor like the carboxylic acids with low molecular weight. It can be found in the perennial flowering plant valerian naturally, which is also known as valeriana officinalis. The most important function of valeric acid is in the synthesis of its esters. Volatile esters synthesized from valeric acid have more pleasant odors compared with valeric acid. It is can be used in perfumes and cosmetics.

Valeric acid Analysis Service

Scientists at Creative Proteomics utilize a highly quantitative method with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of Valeric acid levels in various samples, including Tissue, Plant, Bacterial, Cells and more. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) using a differential refractive index detector (RID) for the determination of Valeric acid levels in a lot of biological samples.

Pentyl valerate and ethyl valerate derived from valeric acid have fruity flavors and are used as food additives usually. Valeric acid has similar chemical structure with gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid, which is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter and a psychoactive drug. Valeric acid also has similar structure with neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid, which is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. Valeric acid lacks the alcohol and amine functional groups, which contribute to the biological activities of GHB and GABA. Valeric acid is methylated and results in the formation of mevalonic acid. Irritation can be accused by valeric acid when it contacts with the skin, mucous membranes or eyes.

From Our Clients

"I recently used their proteomics service for a project analyzing protein interactions in yeast models. The team was very responsive and helped clarify the methodology they employed, which made me feel confident in the results. The data quality was solid, with clear identification of several key proteins involved in our study. Their thorough analysis enabled me to pinpoint specific interactions that I hadn't considered before, which significantly improved the direction of my research. I appreciate their professionalism and support throughout the process."

Sarah Thompson, University of California, Berkeley

"Our lab collaborated with them on a project studying cancer biomarkers. The proteomics analysis provided was detailed and focused, specifically highlighting the differential expression of proteins between healthy and tumor samples. Their clear explanations of the data helped my team understand the biological implications. I also appreciated their willingness to revise the reports based on our feedback, ensuring that we had everything we needed for our publication. This collaborative spirit was invaluable."

Emily Rodriguez, Stanford University

"Our lab worked with them on a project studying the effects of diet on gut microbiota using proteomics. They used a label-free quantification method to analyze proteins in fecal samples before and after dietary intervention. The results showed significant changes in protein expression linked to microbial activity. This was pivotal for our hypothesis about diet-microbiota interactions. The clarity of their data presentation made it easy for our team to integrate these findings into our ongoing research."

Dr. Lisa Wong, University of Toronto

"My experience with Creative Proteomics during the mass spectrometry analysis was excellent. We sent in human saliva and mouse brain tissue samples, which they expertly analyzed using both LC-MS and GC-MS techniques. The results were invaluable, revealing key metabolites in the saliva and identifying biomarkers linked to brain function in the brain tissue."

Dr. Emily Carter, Senior Research Scientist

"The overall service from Creative Proteomics was outstanding. They made the entire process seamless and efficient, allowing us to focus on our research. We worked with leaf and root samples from various Arabidopsis genotypes for targeted metabolomics analysis. Their thorough profiling of primary and secondary metabolites gave us important insights into how the plants respond metabolically to environmental stress."

Dr. Laura Henderson, Plant Physiologist

"We had a pleasant collaboration with Creative Proteomics on mass spectrometry analysis of lipids. They conducted a detailed analysis of lipid species, providing us with important insights into lipid metabolism and its relationship with metabolic syndrome disease states."

Dr. Sarah Mitchell, Research Scientist
