Description

(+/-)-Methamphetamine-D8 CAS NO 136765-40-7 is a deuterated analog of methamphetamine, where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. This isotopic labeling is critical for creating reliable internal standards for mass spectrometry, ensuring unparalleled accuracy in quantitative analysis. This high-purity reference material is essential for forensic laboratories, clinical research facilities, and pharmaceutical development teams requiring definitive analytical results.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Serves as a primary quantitative reference in GC-MS and LC-MS/MS methods for the precise measurement of methamphetamine and its metabolites.
• Forensic Toxicology: Used in the analysis of biological samples (urine, blood, hair) for legal and workplace drug testing programs, ensuring method validity and regulatory compliance.
• Pharmacokinetic and Metabolism Studies: Enables accurate tracking of drug distribution, metabolism, and elimination in clinical and preclinical research.
• Method Development and Validation: A key component for establishing and verifying the accuracy, precision, and specificity of new analytical protocols.
• Quality Control in Reference Material Production: Used to certify and calibrate other analytical standards and controls.
• Doping Control: Employed in sports anti-doping laboratories for the definitive identification and quantification of stimulant abuse.
