Description

Lauryl Alcohol, [1-14C] is a carbon-14 radiolabeled version of dodecan-1-ol, a key fatty alcohol. This labeled compound is essential for precise metabolic and environmental fate studies, providing a reliable tracer for tracking pathways and degradation. It is primarily used by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and environmental science sectors for advanced analytical applications.

Application

• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used in pharmaceutical R&D to study the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of drug candidates and surfactants.
• Environmental Fate Studies: Tracks the biodegradation and environmental persistence of surfactants and related compounds in soil and water systems.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a labeled precursor or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex radiolabeled molecules for biological assays.
• Quality Control & Analytical Standards: Acts as an internal standard or reference material in advanced chromatographic (e.g., LC-MS) and spectroscopic analyses.
• Material Science Research: Investigates the incorporation and behavior of lauryl alcohol derivatives in polymers and surface coatings.

Quality Control

Every batch of Lauryl Alcohol, [1-14C] is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality systems to ensure identity, purity, and specific activity. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including radiochemical purity analysis by HPLC, to ensure compliance with research standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific activity, radiochemical purity, chemical purity, and solvent is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C or as specified on the label) in a designated, well-ventilated area for radioactive materials. Due to its high volatility, ensure containers are securely sealed to prevent loss of material.
