Description

Carbon Tetrachloride (13C) is a stable isotope-labeled analog of carbon tetrachloride, where the central carbon atom is the carbon-13 isotope. This product is essential for advanced analytical and research applications where precise molecular tracking and quantification are required. It is primarily used by scientists and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, environmental, and chemical research sectors for applications such as NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

Application

• Internal standard and tracer in quantitative Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (qNMR) spectroscopy for pharmaceutical impurity profiling and purity determination.
• Calibration standard and reference material in Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) for environmental and forensic analysis.
• Metabolic pathway tracing and mechanistic studies in biochemical and toxicological research.
• Isotope dilution analysis for the accurate quantification of carbon tetrachloride in complex matrices.
• Use in the synthesis of other carbon-13 labeled compounds for research and development.
• As a solvent in specialized spectroscopic studies where isotopic purity is critical.

Quality Control

Our Carbon Tetrachloride (13C) is produced and handled under stringent quality systems to ensure high isotopic and chemical purity, critical for sensitive analytical applications. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing parameters such as isotopic enrichment, chemical purity, and solvent residues. We adhere to relevant industry standards for reference materials.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent and highly volatile compound, ensure containers are kept upright and sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and moisture ingress.
