Description

Dansyl Hydrazine is a high-purity, fluorescent derivatization reagent widely used in analytical chemistry. Its core value lies in its ability to selectively and sensitively tag carbonyl groups, aldehydes, and ketones, enabling their detection and quantification via HPLC or fluorescence spectroscopy. This compound is essential for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and environmental monitoring sectors who require precise analytical methods.

Application

• HPLC Derivatization Agent: For the pre-column or post-column labeling and sensitive detection of carbonyl compounds, including aldehydes and ketones.
• Pharmaceutical Analysis: Used in the assay and impurity profiling of drug substances and products that contain aldehyde or ketone functional groups.
• Food Safety Testing: Employed in methods to detect and quantify trace levels of undesirable aldehydes, such as formaldehyde or acetaldehyde, in food products and packaging.
• Environmental Analysis: Applied in monitoring airborne aldehydes and other carbonyl pollutants in environmental samples.
• Biomarker Research: Utilized for derivatizing carbonyl-containing metabolites or biomarkers in proteomic and metabolomic studies.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Serves as a building block or protecting group reagent in specialized organic synthesis.

Quality Control

Our Dansyl Hydrazine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR), to ensure it meets the high standards required for sensitive analytical applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect stability and performance.
