Description

Benzyl Alcohol, [7-14C] CAS NO 13057-53-9 is a carbon-14 labeled isotopologue of benzyl alcohol, a versatile aromatic alcohol. This radiolabeled compound is essential for conducting precise metabolic, pharmacokinetic, and environmental fate studies, providing critical data for regulatory submissions and scientific research. It is primarily required by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, agrochemical companies, and contract research organizations (CROs) engaged in advanced tracer analysis and drug development.

Application

• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used as a radiolabeled tracer to study the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of benzyl alcohol and related compounds in biological systems.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Critical for quantifying drug metabolites and understanding the biotransformation pathways of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) that contain or metabolize to benzyl alcohol.
• Environmental Fate Studies: Applied in research to track the degradation, persistence, and breakdown products of benzyl alcohol in environmental matrices.
• Biochemical Synthesis: Serves as a labeled building block in the synthesis of more complex 14C-labeled molecules for research purposes.
• Analytical Method Development: Used as an internal standard or reference material in developing and validating sensitive analytical methods like LC-MS/MS for benzyl alcohol quantification.
