Description

Glyceryl Tri(Octanoate-D15) is a fully deuterated analog of glyceryl trioctanoate, where the hydrogen atoms on the octanoate chains are replaced by deuterium. This stable isotope-labeled compound is critical for advanced analytical and research applications where precise molecular tracking and minimal background interference are required. It is primarily utilized by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, analytical chemistry, and metabolic research sectors for use as an internal standard, tracer, or matrix in mass spectrometry and NMR studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (MS): Essential for the accurate quantification of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and related compounds in complex biological matrices like plasma, serum, and tissue samples.
• Metabolic Tracer Studies: Used in lipid metabolism research to track the absorption, distribution, and metabolic fate of dietary fats using techniques such as isotope ratio mass spectrometry.
• NMR Spectroscopy Solvent/Matrix: Serves as a deuterated solvent or matrix component in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments to reduce proton signal interference.
• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Employed in the development and validation of bioanalytical methods for lipid-based drug formulations and pharmacokinetic studies.
• Nutritional Science: Aids in studies investigating the metabolic effects of medium-chain fatty acids and structured lipids.
• Quality Control Reference Material: Acts as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for calibrating analytical instruments and ensuring method accuracy in quality control laboratories.
