Description

Sodium Dl-Lactate-D4 is a high-purity, isotopically labeled sodium salt of lactic acid, where four hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium. This compound is essential for advanced analytical and research applications requiring precise molecular tracking and quantification. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and metabolic research sectors for use as an internal standard in mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Serves as a critical reference standard in LC-MS and GC-MS methods for the accurate quantification of lactate and related metabolites in complex biological matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used in deuterium-labeling studies to investigate glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and other metabolic fluxes in cell cultures, tissues, and in vivo models.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Employed in method development and validation to detect and quantify process-related impurities or degradation products in drug substances and products.
• Clinical Diagnostics Research: Aids in the development of robust assays for measuring lactate levels, a key biomarker in conditions like sepsis, metabolic disorders, and tissue hypoxia.
• Stable Isotope-Labeled Precursor: Acts as a starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of more complex deuterated compounds for research purposes.
• Food & Beverage Analysis: Can be used in specialized methods to authenticate products or study fermentation processes using stable isotope ratio analysis.
