Description

Acrylic Acid (13C3) is a stable isotope-labeled analog of acrylic acid, where all three carbon atoms are the carbon-13 isotope. This compound is essential for advanced analytical and research applications, providing a critical internal standard for precise quantification and metabolic pathway tracing. It is primarily utilized by researchers and analytical laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries for mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Used for the accurate quantification of acrylic acid and its derivatives in complex biological and environmental matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Analysis: Enables the tracing of biochemical pathways in plant, microbial, and mammalian systems to study acrylic acid metabolism.
• NMR Spectroscopy Studies: Serves as a probe for structural and kinetic studies in polymer chemistry and material science due to its distinct NMR signature.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Critical in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies for tracking the fate of drug candidates containing acrylic acid moieties.
• Polymer Science Research: Used to investigate polymerization mechanisms, kinetics, and the structure of acrylic polymers and copolymers.
• Environmental Analysis: Aids in the detection and quantification of trace acrylic acid pollutants in water and air samples.

Quality Control

Our Acrylic Acid (13C3) is produced under stringent conditions to ensure exceptional isotopic and chemical purity. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing isotopic enrichment (typically ≥99 atom % ¹³C), chemical purity (by HPLC/NMR), and absence of critical impurities. We adhere to rigorous in-house quality standards suitable for research and analytical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, minimize exposure to air, heat, and moisture. Keep away from strong bases, oxidizing agents, and sources of ignition.
