Description

Cyanidin-3-Galactoside Chloride is a specific anthocyanin compound, a natural pigment belonging to the flavonoid class. This high-purity reference standard is critical for research and development, offering a reliable benchmark for analytical studies and quality control in industries where precise color and bioactive compound measurement is essential. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers and researchers in the nutraceutical, cosmetic, and food & beverage sectors for product development and standardization.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Used as a primary standard in HPLC and LC-MS for the quantification of anthocyanins in complex matrices like berries, wines, and botanical extracts.
• Nutraceutical & Functional Food Ingredient: Incorporated into supplements and fortified foods for its potential antioxidant properties and health-promoting benefits.
• Natural Colorant Development: Serves as a key component in developing stable, natural red-to-blue colorants for beverages, confectionery, and dairy products.
• Cosmetic & Skincare Formulations: Utilized in serums and creams for its antioxidant activity, aiming to protect skin from environmental stressors.
• Biochemical & Pharmacological Research: Employed in in vitro and in vivo studies to investigate mechanisms of action, bioavailability, and therapeutic potential.
• Quality Control & Authentication: Essential for verifying the authenticity and anthocyanin profile of fruit juices, extracts, and raw materials in quality assurance labs.

Quality Control

Our Cyanidin-3-Galactoside Chloride is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and identity confirmation by spectroscopic methods (UV-Vis, MS). We provide a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing all critical specifications to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and industrial applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) for long-term stability, as the compound is easily oxidized and light-sensitive. For short-term use, store desiccated at 2-8°C. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
