Description

Urobilin Ix Hydrochloride is a chemically modified derivative of urobilin, a natural bile pigment, stabilized in its hydrochloride salt form. This compound is a critical biochemical reagent and a valuable intermediate for research and diagnostic applications, offering high purity and consistent performance. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, diagnostic kit manufacturers, and academic institutions conducting studies in hepatology, gastroenterology, and pigment metabolism.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a standard or reference compound in studies of bile pigment metabolism, liver function, and jaundice.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: Serves as a key component or calibrator in in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kits for the quantitative analysis of urobilinogen and related metabolites in urine.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Acts as a synthetic precursor or building block in the development of novel therapeutic agents and contrast media.
• Academic & Clinical Studies: Employed in laboratory experiments to model physiological and pathological conditions related to heme catabolism.
• Quality Control Standards: Provides a certified reference material for analytical method validation and quality assurance in clinical laboratories.

Quality Control

Our Urobilin Ix Hydrochloride is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or manufacturing specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a desiccated environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
