Description

Anthraquinone-D8 is a deuterated analog of anthraquinone, where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, serving as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard. This high-purity compound is essential for ensuring accuracy and reliability in quantitative analytical techniques, particularly mass spectrometry. It is a critical material for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, environmental, and advanced materials sectors who require precise measurement and traceability in their analyses.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Primary use as a quantitative reference standard in LC-MS and GC-MS analysis of anthraquinone and related compounds.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Metabolism Studies: Used in pharmacokinetic and drug metabolism studies to track and quantify parent compounds and metabolites with high precision.
• Environmental Analysis: Employed in the detection and quantification of anthraquinone-based dyes or pollutants in environmental samples.
• Deuterated Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a labeled starting material or intermediate for the synthesis of more complex deuterated molecules.
• NMR Spectroscopy: Useful as a deuterated solvent shift reference or in mechanistic studies.
• Quality Control & Method Validation: Critical for developing and validating robust analytical methods in compliance with GLP and GMP guidelines.
