Description

6-Hydroxy-2,2',4,4',5-Pentabde Unlabeled 50 Ug/Ml In Nonane is a high-purity analytical reference standard solution, specifically formulated for precise quantitative and qualitative analysis. This product is essential for laboratories requiring a reliable and consistent standard for the detection and measurement of the hydroxylated PBDE metabolite, 6-OH-BDE-137, in complex matrices. It is primarily used by environmental testing laboratories, research institutions, and regulatory bodies engaged in persistent organic pollutant (POP) monitoring, toxicology studies, and method development.

Application

• Environmental Analysis: Calibration standard for the quantification of 6-OH-BDE-137 in water, soil, sediment, and biota samples as part of POP monitoring programs.
• Toxicological Research: Used in in vitro and in vivo studies to investigate the metabolism, bioaccumulation, and toxic effects of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs).
• Method Development & Validation: A critical component for developing, optimizing, and validating analytical methods using techniques like GC-MS or LC-MS/MS.
• Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC): Serves as a spike or reference material for recovery studies, ensuring the accuracy and precision of laboratory analytical procedures.
• Food Safety Testing: Potential application in screening for contaminant levels in food products, particularly fish and other seafood.
• Occupational Health Monitoring: Used in assays to assess human exposure to flame retardants through biomonitoring of blood or tissue samples.

Quality Control

Every batch of our 6-Hydroxy-2,2',4,4',5-Pentabde standard solution is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality protocols. The concentration is verified using certified reference materials and state-of-the-art instrumentation to ensure traceability and accuracy. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing the assay, solvent verification, and stability data. Our quality system is designed to support GLP-compliant and ISO 17025-accredited laboratories.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C (refrigerated). Due to the highly volatile nature of the nonane solvent, ensure containers are kept upright in a well-ventilated area and allowed to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
