Description

Cerivastatin Sodium is a synthetic, highly potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, a key compound in cholesterol-lowering research. Its primary value lies in its role as a critical reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for analytical and developmental purposes. This product is essential for pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, analytical testing facilities, and manufacturers engaged in cardiovascular drug development and quality control.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used as a primary standard for the identification, assay, and impurity profiling of statin-based drugs in HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical methods.
• Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Research: Serves as a key starting material or intermediate in the research and development of novel HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors and related cardiovascular therapeutics.
• Biochemical & Pharmacological Studies: Employed in in vitro and in vivo studies to investigate mechanisms of cholesterol biosynthesis, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic pathways.
• Quality Control & Assurance: Critical for pharmaceutical manufacturers to validate analytical methods, ensure batch-to-batch consistency, and comply with regulatory requirements for drug substance characterization.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Used in universities and research institutes for scientific studies related to lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, and drug discovery programs.

Quality Control

Our Cerivastatin Sodium is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling via advanced techniques like HPLC and LC-MS to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for research and development. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your project requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccants or inert atmosphere conditions.
