Description

Indeno[1,2,3-Cd]Fluoranthene-D12 is a deuterated isotopologue of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) indeno[1,2,3-cd]fluoranthene, a compound of significant environmental and analytical interest. This stable isotope-labeled standard is essential for achieving high accuracy and precision in quantitative mass spectrometry, serving as an internal standard to correct for analyte loss during sample preparation and instrument variability. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and research institutions engaged in the trace-level detection and quantification of PAHs in complex matrices such as soil, water, air particulates, and food products.

Application

• Internal Standard for GC-MS/LC-MS Analysis: Critical for the accurate quantification of indeno[1,2,3-cd]fluoranthene and related PAHs in environmental and food safety testing.
• Environmental Monitoring: Used in method development and routine analysis for monitoring PAH contamination in soil, sediment, wastewater, and air particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10) to comply with EPA, EU, and other international regulations.
• Food and Consumer Product Safety: Enables precise measurement of PAHs in foodstuffs (e.g., smoked meats, oils), cosmetics, and rubber products to ensure compliance with safety limits set by agencies like the FDA and EFSA.
• Occupational Health and Industrial Hygiene: Supports exposure assessment in workplaces where PAHs are generated, such as coke production, aluminum smelting, and asphalt paving.
• Forensic and Petrochemical Analysis: Aids in source identification and fingerprinting of petroleum spills and combustion-derived pollutants.
• Method Validation and Proficiency Testing: Serves as a certified reference material for validating analytical methods and ensuring laboratory competency.
• Academic and Pharmaceutical Research: Used in metabolic studies, environmental fate research, and investigations into the toxicology of PAHs.
