ACCQ•Fluor reagent kIt

I. IntroduCtIon

The Waters AccQ•Fluor™ Reagent Kit contains five sets of the deriva-
tizing reagents used to perform the AccQ•Tag™ Amino Acid Analysis
Method. A set consists of one vial each of:

– AccQ•Fluor Borate Buffer - Vial 1. You add the buffer to the sam-
ples to generate the proper pH environment for the derivatizatlon.

– AccQ•Fluor Reagent Powder - Vial 2A. The reagent powder Is the
6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyI carbamate (AQC) derivatiz-
ing reagent. It Is shipped dry for maximum stability.

– AccQ•Fluor Reagent Diluent - Vial 2B. Use the diluent(acetonitrile)
to reconstitute the reagent for derivatization.

The Waters AccQ•Fluor Reagent Kit (Figure 1) contains sufficient
reagent for up to 250 analyses.
