Description

Acetic-1-13C Acid, Sodium Salt is a stable, isotopically labeled derivative of sodium acetate, where the carbon-13 isotope is specifically incorporated at the carboxyl position. This precise labeling makes it an indispensable tool for advanced research requiring metabolic pathway tracing and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy studies. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic research institutions, and analytical laboratories engaged in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) research, stable isotope probing, and quantitative analysis.

Application

• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used as a 13C-labeled precursor to track and elucidate biochemical pathways in living systems.
• NMR Spectroscopy: Serves as a crucial internal standard or reference compound in quantitative and structural Nuclear Magnetic Resonance analysis.
• Drug Metabolism & Pharmacokinetics (DMPK): Employed in the development and validation of bioanalytical methods for studying the fate of drug molecules in the body.
• Stable Isotope Probing (SIP): Facilitates the study of microbial function and community dynamics in environmental and biological samples.
• Mass Spectrometry (MS): Acts as a high-purity standard for calibration and quantification in LC-MS and GC-MS platforms.
• Biochemical Research: Used in enzymatic studies and as a building block for the synthesis of other 13C-labeled compounds.
