Description

Naphthalene 13C6 CAS NO 1192501-11-3 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of naphthalene, where all six carbon atoms in the aromatic rings are the carbon-13 (13C) isotope. This compound is an essential internal standard and tracer in advanced analytical chemistry, enabling precise quantification and metabolic pathway elucidation. It is primarily required by research institutions, pharmaceutical developers, and environmental testing laboratories engaged in mass spectrometry-based analyses, including GC-MS and LC-MS, for method development and validation.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Used in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of native naphthalene and related polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in complex matrices.
• Metabolic Tracing Studies: Serves as a stable isotopic tracer in pharmaceutical and biochemical research to investigate the metabolic fate and degradation pathways of naphthalene in biological systems.
• Environmental Analysis and Monitoring: Critical for method development in detecting and quantifying trace levels of naphthalene pollutants in air, water, soil, and industrial waste samples with high precision.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Employed in the identification and quantification of naphthalene-related impurities or degradation products in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug products.
• Forensic and Toxicological Analysis: Provides a reliable reference standard in forensic labs for confirming the presence of naphthalene in casework samples.
• Calibration and Instrument Qualification: Used to calibrate mass spectrometers and validate analytical methods, ensuring instrument performance and data integrity in regulated environments.
