BPATest Immunoaffinity Column

BPATest™ pairs immunoaffinity chromatography with liquid chromatography (LC) and liquid chromatography – mass spectrometry (LC-MS) systems to accurately, precisely, and reliably detect and measure ppb levels of BPA in complex matrices. The proprietary monoclonal antibodies in VICAM’s immunoaffinity columns efficiently extract highly concentrated, ultra-clean test samples, virtually eliminating the risk of errors due to chemical interferences or over-dilution, without adding multiple time-consuming steps to laboratory workflows.

Benefits
• Fit for Purpose – Specifically designed for HPLC, UPLC, and LC-MS use
• Wide range – Detects levels as low as 0.5 ppb and as high as 20 ppb
• Versatile – Works with a variety of samples
• Ideal Volume - Column size of 1 mL
• Quick – Isolates target analyte in as little time as 10 minutes
• Safe – Requires smaller amounts of potentially harmful chemicals

Background

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical of concern found in polycarbonate consumer products such as plastic food and beverage containers, as well as in a wide variety of epoxy resin applications, including the inner coatings of cans, jar caps, and water pipes; dental materials; and thermal paper. BPA safety studies have linked this known endocrine disruptor to numerous adverse health effects, ranging from diabetes, heart disease, and reproductive and developmental problems to breast and prostate cancers. Regulations continue to evolve in response to mounting scientific and consumer concern about the potential impact of BPA on public health and the environment.
