Description

2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline-13C2 85% (10% W/W In Dcm) is a stable isotope-labeled analog of the key flavor compound 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline, specifically enriched with carbon-13 at two positions. This product is essential for advanced analytical research, providing an internal standard for precise quantification and metabolic pathway tracing using mass spectrometry. It is primarily used by research scientists and quality control laboratories in the flavor & fragrance, food science, and agricultural biotechnology sectors. The compound is supplied as an 85% pure material in a 10% w/w solution in dichloromethane for convenient handling and accurate dispensing.

Application

• Internal Standard for GC-MS/LC-MS Analysis: Used for the accurate quantification of natural 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline in complex matrices like rice, bread, and pandan leaves.
• Metabolic Pathway Studies: Tracks the biosynthesis and degradation of the "popcorn" or "roasty" flavor compound in plants and during food processing.
• Flavor Authenticity and Adulteration Testing: Enables reliable detection methods to verify the natural origin of flavors in premium food products.
• Fragrance Research & Development: Serves as a tracer in studying the stability and release mechanisms of key aroma molecules in perfumery.
• Agricultural & Plant Science: Investigates the genetic and environmental factors influencing desirable aroma production in crops.
• Reference Material for Calibration: Provides a certified reference material for instrument calibration and method validation in analytical laboratories.

Quality Control

Every batch of our 2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline-13C2 is produced and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure isotopic enrichment, chemical purity, and solution concentration meet the exacting standards required for research. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) that include data for isotopic purity (by NMR or MS), chemical assay (by GC or HPLC), and solvent content. Our quality system is designed to support GMP/GLP-compliant research and development.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C (refrigerated) to maintain stability of both the solute and the dichloromethane solvent. The container should be kept in a well-ventilated area due to the highly volatile and flammable nature of the solvent. Allow the solution to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
