Description

Ammonium Hippurate is the ammonium salt of hippuric acid, a key organic compound with significant utility in biochemical and pharmaceutical research. This product is valued for its consistent purity and stability, making it a reliable reagent for critical laboratory and industrial processes. It is primarily sought by manufacturers and research institutions in the pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and fine chemical synthesis sectors for use as a standard, intermediate, or analytical reference material.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a standard or reagent in metabolic studies, particularly those involving benzoate metabolism and liver function.
• Diagnostic Reagent: Employed in the formulation of specific culture media and diagnostic kits for microbiological and clinical testing.
• Analytical Chemistry: Functions as a high-purity reference standard for calibration in chromatographic (HPLC) and spectroscopic analyses.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a building block in organic synthesis for producing specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Our Ammonium Hippurate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for research and industrial applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed after use to prevent degradation and absorption of moisture.
