Description

Glyfosate 13C2 15N is a stable isotope-labeled analog of the widely used herbicide glyphosate, specifically labeled with carbon-13 and nitrogen-15. This compound is an essential reference standard and internal standard for advanced analytical techniques, enabling precise quantification and metabolic studies. It is primarily required by research institutions, agrochemical companies, and environmental testing laboratories for method development, residue analysis, and environmental fate studies.

Application

• Quantitative Mass Spectrometry (MS) Analysis: Serves as a critical internal standard for the accurate LC-MS/MS quantification of glyphosate and its metabolites in complex matrices.
• Environmental Monitoring and Fate Studies: Used in tracer experiments to study the degradation, adsorption, and leaching behavior of glyphosate in soil and water systems.
• Metabolic Pathway Research: Enables the tracing of glyphosate's metabolic pathways in plants, microorganisms, and animals using isotope-ratio mass spectrometry.
• Method Validation and Quality Assurance: Acts as a certified reference material (CRM) to validate analytical methods, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards for food safety and environmental protection.
• Forensic and Doping Control Analysis: Provides a definitive standard for confirmatory testing in forensic science and anti-doping controls where glyphosate may be a subject of investigation.

Quality Control

Every batch of Glyfosate 13C2 15N is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality systems to ensure the highest isotopic and chemical purity for trace analysis. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request and provide detailed data on isotopic enrichment, chemical purity, and solvent content, meeting the stringent requirements of research and regulatory laboratories.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept under inert conditions or in a desiccator after opening to maintain stability and purity.
