Pico-Tag Reagent Kit

If you’ve ever taken advantage of the Waters Pico-Tag Method for Amino Acid Analysis, then you know the kind of clarity that using it can provide. That’s why when you run out of essentials needed for the Pico-Tag workflow, it’s important that you return to us at Waters to stock up. That includes the Pico-Tag Reagent Kit, which is required to perform precolumn derivatization before proceeded with the relevant separation. This reagent kit comes with everything you need to perform the precolumn derivatization step in the Pico-Tag workflow, plus these reagents have been specially formulated to provide you with the easiest amino acid derivatization prior to separation with whichever column you prefer. Take advantage of the Pico-Tag workflow at scale when you purchase the Pico-Tag Reagent Kit and all your other lab essentials at Waters. Simply put, we have everything you need to be successful in the lab.

The Pico-Tag method is frequently used across the world by scientists for the purpose of amino acid analysis. What’s so important about using this method is that it provides you with the opportunity to derivatize the amino acid from a chosen compound before performing the separation. That way you can be even more sure of the structural makeup of the compound or molecule you’re studying. When you’re using optical detection methods, using the right reagents is of the utmost importance.

There are many different components to the Pico-Tag workflow, so before you check out with the Pico-Tag Reagent Kit, it’s important to make sure you have all the other items in good measure and working order before proceeding. That includes the Pico-Tag Diluent, which has been used for over two decades for the purpose of amino acid analysis. This diluent can be used to dilute a mixture when the concentration is too strong. What’s more, the diluent must undergo strict QC processes before being put up for sale. That helps us to ensure you only receive our best products right out of the box.

At Waters, we have so much more than just the essentials for the Pico-Tag method. We have everything from quality control reference materials and lab informatics to full LC-MS systems and chromatography consumables. Shop lab equipment to discover all of our offerings.
