Description

Calcium48 CAS NO 13981-76-5 is a stable, non-radioactive isotope of calcium, specifically the isotope with mass number 48. This high-purity material is essential for scientific research and industrial applications requiring precise isotopic labeling or tracer studies. It is particularly valuable for researchers and manufacturers in the fields of nuclear physics, geochemistry, medical diagnostics, and advanced materials science.

Application

• Isotopic Tracer Studies: Used as a stable tracer in biological, environmental, and geological research to track calcium pathways and metabolism.
• Nuclear Physics Research: Serves as a target material or a precursor in nuclear reaction studies and for the production of other isotopes.
• Medical Research: Potential application in the development of novel diagnostic agents and in studies of bone metabolism and calcium-related diseases.
• Geochemical Dating: Employed in mass spectrometry for precise measurement in geochronology and climate research.
• Reference Standard: Acts as a calibration standard for mass spectrometers and other analytical instruments requiring high-purity isotopic materials.
• Advanced Materials: Used in the synthesis and characterization of specialized materials where isotopic purity influences physical properties.

Quality Control

Our Calcium48 is produced and handled under stringent conditions to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques, including Mass Spectrometry (MS), to verify isotopic enrichment and assess chemical impurities. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic abundance, metallic impurities, and other relevant parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency for your critical research and development needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its property of being easily oxidized, contact with air should be minimized.
