Description

Glyceryl Trihexadecanoate-D98 is a high-purity, deuterium-labeled triacylglycerol specifically designed for advanced analytical and research applications. This compound serves as a critical internal standard for the precise quantification of its non-labeled counterpart, palmitin, in complex matrices using mass spectrometry. It is an essential tool for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, nutritional science, and lipidomics fields who require uncompromising accuracy in their metabolic and compositional studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) in lipid quantification.
• Metabolic tracer studies in nutritional and biochemical research.
• Stable Isotope Dilution Assay (SIDA) for the accurate analysis of triglycerides in food, biological fluids, and tissue samples.
• Pharmaceutical research, particularly in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies involving lipid-based formulations.
• Quality control and method validation in analytical laboratories for ensuring measurement precision.
• Biomarker discovery and validation in clinical lipidomics.

Quality Control

Every batch of Glyceryl Trihexadecanoate-D98 is produced and analyzed under strict quality management protocols. We guarantee high chemical and isotopic purity to meet the exacting demands of analytical research. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (D%), chemical purity (by HPLC), and identity confirmation (by NMR/MS) is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below for long-term stability. Allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation. For prolonged storage under an inert atmosphere, contact our technical team for specific recommendations.
