Description

Zearalenone-4-Sulfate is a sulfated derivative of the mycotoxin zearalenone, serving as a crucial analytical reference standard and metabolite. This compound is essential for accurate detection, quantification, and toxicological research of zearalenone contamination in agricultural and food products. It is primarily utilized by analytical laboratories, food safety agencies, and research institutions focused on mycotoxin analysis and metabolic studies.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use for the calibration of analytical instruments (HPLC, LC-MS/MS) in the quantification of zearalenone and its metabolites.
• Food Safety Testing: Critical for developing and validating testing methods to monitor zearalenone contamination in grains, cereals, and animal feed.
• Metabolite Research: Used in studies investigating the biotransformation, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology of zearalenone in plants, animals, and humans.
• Quality Control Material: Serves as a certified reference material (CRM) or internal standard to ensure the accuracy and precision of laboratory test results.
• Diagnostic Kit Development: Employed in the production and quality control of immunoassay kits (e.g., ELISA) for rapid screening of mycotoxins.
• Regulatory Compliance: Supports compliance testing against international regulatory limits for mycotoxins in food and feed established by bodies like the FDA and EFSA.
