Description

n-Nitrosoatrazine is a specialized nitroso derivative of the triazine herbicide atrazine, identified by CAS NO 56525-09-8. This compound is of significant interest in environmental and analytical chemistry as a key reference standard and transformation product for studying the fate and degradation pathways of atrazine in soil and water systems. It is primarily required by research institutions, environmental testing laboratories, and agrochemical companies engaged in advanced metabolite analysis, regulatory compliance testing, and the development of remediation strategies.

Application

• Primary use as an analytical reference standard for the identification and quantification of atrazine metabolites in environmental samples.
• Critical component in environmental fate and degradation studies to understand the breakdown pathways of atrazine.
• Essential for method development and validation in analytical laboratories using techniques like LC-MS/MS and GC-MS.
• Used in toxicological research to assess the potential impact of nitroso transformation products.
• Serves as a calibration material for monitoring programs targeting pesticide residues in water and soil.
• Supports regulatory and compliance testing for agencies and industries managing herbicide pollution.

Quality Control

Every batch of our n-Nitrosoatrazine is produced and controlled under a strict quality management system to ensure high purity and consistency for research applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and spectroscopic identification, to ensure they meet the exacting standards required for analytical reference materials. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and identification results is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
