Comprehensive targeted profiling of small molecules and lipids using a standardized, quantitative Biocrates
workflow.
The assay covers up to 1,233 metabolites across 49 biochemical classes and is designed for reproducible analysis
across larger study cohorts.
For studies requiring only small-molecule or lipid measurements, the MxQuant (small molecules) and LxQuant
(lipids)
assays are available as separate options.
Multi-analyte targeted coverage
Small molecules and lipids in a single platform
The MxP® Quant 1000 combines targeted measurement of a broad range of small molecules and lipids, including
amino acids, bile acids, fatty acids, indoles, nucleobase-related metabolites, phospholipids,
sphingolipids, glycerolipids, and additional metabolite classes.

Important note on assay coverage:
The analyte lists represent assay targets, not guaranteed results. Some targets may be below the limits of
detection or quantitation in a given sample type or study.
The MxP® Quant 1000 is intended for research use. Analyte coverage and quantitation performance can depend on
sample matrix and study conditions.
Available assay
LxQuant (Lipids)
Comprehensive targeted profiling of lipids using a standardized, quantitative Biocrates workflow.
LxQuant covers up to 906 lipids and provides the lipid component of the Quant 1000 assay
without its small-molecule panel.
Lipid-focused targeted profiling
Broad lipid coverage in a standardized workflow
The LxQuant panel includes glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids,
cholesteryl esters, and other lipid classes represented in the Quant 1000 platform.
Assay coverage: The 906 lipids are targets, not guaranteed results.
Detection and quantitation depend on the sample matrix and analyte abundance.
For the complete set of lipid classes, see the lipid coverage list in the Quant 1000 section above.
