ALEXYS⢠Carbohydrate Analyser
Deliver goldâstandard carbohydrate analysis with the ALEXYS⢠Carbohydrate Analyser from Antec Scientific â now available in the UK through Verulam Scientific.
Designed for laboratories that demand precision, sensitivity, and reproducibility, the ALEXYS system provides a fully integrated solution for carbohydrate profiling across food, beverage, biological, and pharmaceutical applications.
đ Why ALEXYS? A Dedicated System for Carbohydrate Analysis
The ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyser is built on HighâPerformance Anion Exchange Chromatography with Pulsed Amperometric Detection (HPAECâPAD) â the goldâstandard technique for sensitive, derivatizationâfree carbohydrate detection.
Key advantages:
- Exceptional sensitivity â down to 10 nmol/L
Enables detection of trace sugars, sugar acids, sugar alcohols, and complex carbohydrates with confidence. - SweetSep⢠AEX columns for superior separation
Newly developed SweetSep columns deliver rapid, highâresolution separation with moderate backpressure, optimised specifically for carbohydrate species. - Dedicated electrochemical detection
Uses pulseâmode amperometry to prevent electrode fouling and maintain stable, longâterm performance. - Robust, highâpHâresistant flow cells
FlexCell and SenCell options with maintenanceâfree HyREF reference electrode ensure stable, reproducible results even under challenging alkaline conditions. - Ideal for both routine and R&D workflows
Supports analysis of:
- FOS and dietary fibres
- Sugar alcohols (e.g., erythritol, xylitol, sorbitol)
- Sugar phosphates and nucleotides
- Sialic acids
- Carbohydrates in food, beverages, plants, lactoseâfree products, and biological systems.
âď¸ A Fully Integrated Analyser
The ALEXYS platform combines:
- (U)HPLC pump
- Autosampler
- Column thermostat
- Electrochemical detector
- Eluent tray and COââfree mobile phase kit
All components are optimised to work together for maximum sensitivity, stability, and ease of use.
As Antec Scientificâs UK partner, Verulam Scientific provides:
- Expert consultation on HPAECâPAD workflows
- Full purchasing and configuration support
- Installation, training, and method guidance
- Ongoing service and technical support
Whether youâre analysing sugars in food products, profiling glycans, or supporting bioprocess monitoring, the ALEXYS Carbohydrate Analyser delivers the performance and reliability your lab needs.
