Description

Fluorene (13C6) is a stable isotope-labeled analog of fluorene, where six carbon atoms are replaced with the carbon-13 isotope. This high-purity compound is essential for use as an internal standard in quantitative mass spectrometry, ensuring analytical accuracy and traceability. It is primarily required by research laboratories, pharmaceutical developers, and environmental testing facilities engaged in advanced analytical method development and precise quantification.

Application

• Internal Standard for LC/MS and GC/MS: Critical for the accurate quantification of fluorene and related polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in complex matrices.
• Metabolite Tracing in Pharmaceutical Research: Used in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies to track the fate of drug compounds.
• Environmental Analysis: Enables precise measurement of PAH contaminants in soil, water, and air samples for regulatory compliance and environmental monitoring.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a labeled precursor or tracer in studies of metabolic pathways and enzymatic processes.
• Food Safety Testing: Employed in methods to detect and quantify PAH residues in food products, such as smoked meats and oils.
• Forensic Analysis: Provides a reliable reference standard for the identification and quantification of compounds in forensic toxicology.
• Method Development and Validation: Used to develop, optimize, and validate new analytical protocols in compliance with GLP and ISO 17025 standards.
• Quality Control in Chemical Manufacturing: Acts as a reference material to ensure the purity and consistency of fluorene-based products.
