Comprehensive PEth Analysis in Whole Blood – Dual LC-MS Kit for POPEth and PLPEth
Gain deeper insights into alcohol intake with a reliable and standardised LC-MS kit for the quantification of both 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanol (POPEth) and 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanol (PLPEth) in whole blood. This kit offers a dual-analyte approach that enhances analytical completeness and supports research into long-term ethanol exposure.
As the first commercially available kit designed to quantify the two most relevant PEth species simultaneously, it delivers a unique combination of accuracy, reproducibility, and workflow efficiency — all in a validated, ready-to-use format.
Dual PEth Quantification – More Than Just POPEth
While most conventional methods focus exclusively on POPEth, this innovative kit quantifies both POPEth and PLPEth in parallel, enabling a broader and more nuanced analysis of phosphatidylethanol levels. This approach offers added value for studies aiming to evaluate alcohol intake patterns over extended time periods.
Applications in Alcohol-Related Research
The kit is ideal for use in a variety of research settings where the detection of alcohol exposure plays a critical role, including:
- Addiction and behavioural health studies
- Forensic and toxicological research
- Pre-operative and transplant-related screening protocols
- Occupational and traffic safety evaluations
Its analytical robustness and high specificity make it a valuable asset for laboratories working in the field of alcohol intake research.
Optimised for Routine LC-MS Workflows
Ready-to-use lyophilised standards – single-use format ensures long shelf life, minimal contamination risk, and consistent performance.
Compatible with standard LC-MS platforms – straightforward integration into existing analytical setups.
Streamlined workflow – ideal for high-throughput environments where reproducibility and efficiency are key.
