Description

2,3,4,4',5-Pentacb (Pcb-114) (13C12, 99%) 40+/-2 Ug/Ml In Nonane is a high-purity, isotopically labeled analytical reference standard, specifically formulated as a solution in nonane. This product is essential for ensuring the accuracy and traceability of analytical methods in environmental and food safety testing. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, regulatory bodies, and research institutions engaged in the precise quantification of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS/LC-MS): Used as a quantitative internal standard for the accurate analysis of PCB-114 and other co-eluting congeners in complex matrices.
• Environmental Monitoring and Analysis: Critical for calibrating equipment and validating methods in the testing of soil, sediment, water, and air samples for persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
• Food and Feed Safety Compliance Testing: Enables reliable quantification of PCB residues in food products, animal feed, and edible oils to ensure compliance with global safety regulations (e.g., EU, FDA).
• Method Development and Validation: Serves as a key reagent for developing, optimizing, and accrediting new analytical procedures according to ISO/IEC 17025 standards.
• Quality Control and Proficiency Testing: Employed in the preparation of certified reference materials (CRMs) and in laboratory proficiency testing schemes to assess analytical performance.
• Toxicological and Environmental Fate Studies: Used in research to study the metabolism, biodegradation, and environmental transport of PCB congeners.

Quality Control

Every batch of this isotopically labeled reference standard is manufactured and certified under strict quality management systems. The product is characterized using advanced techniques including GC-MS and NMR to confirm isotopic enrichment, chemical purity, and solution concentration. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each unit, detailing batch-specific data for concentration, purity, and uncertainty. Our quality protocols are designed to meet the rigorous demands of ISO 17034 for reference material producers.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C (refrigerated). Due to its high volatility and the nonane solvent, ensure containers are kept upright in a well-ventilated area. For long-term stability, storage under inert atmosphere is recommended. Allow the solution to reach room temperature before use and mix thoroughly.
