Description

2-tert-Butyl-4-Hydroxyanisole-D3 is a deuterium-labeled analog of the common antioxidant Butylated Hydroxyanisole (BHA). This stable isotope-labeled compound is essential for analytical and research applications where precise quantification and metabolic tracking are required. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, food science, and chemical industries for use as an internal standard in mass spectrometry and other advanced analytical techniques.

Application

• Internal Standard for Analytical Chemistry: Used in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of BHA in complex matrices.
• Metabolic and Pharmacokinetic Studies: Enables precise tracking of BHA absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) in biological systems.
• Food Safety and Quality Assurance: Supports testing protocols to monitor antioxidant levels and ensure regulatory compliance in food and beverage products.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Facilitates drug development studies where BHA is used as an excipient, allowing for specific analytical detection.
• Environmental Analysis: Aids in the detection and quantification of BHA and its derivatives in environmental samples.
• Reference Material: Serves as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for calibrating analytical instruments and validating methods.
