Description

Desflurane is a modern, highly volatile fluorinated methyl ethyl ether used as an inhalation anesthetic agent. Its primary value lies in its rapid onset and offset of action, providing precise control over the depth of anesthesia and facilitating faster patient recovery. This makes it an essential pharmaceutical active ingredient for manufacturers of inhalation anesthetics targeting hospital operating rooms and surgical centers globally. Desflurane CAS NO 57041-67-5 is supplied to meet the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.

Application

• Primary Pharmaceutical Ingredient: Formulation of modern inhalation general anesthetics for human and veterinary medicine.
• Hospital & Surgical Center Use: Key component in anesthesia delivery systems for a wide range of surgical procedures.
• Anesthesia Research & Development: Used in preclinical and clinical studies for developing new anesthetic protocols and delivery methods.
• Generic Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Sourcing of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for production of generic anesthetic products.
• Veterinary Anesthesia: Formulation of anesthetics for use in animal surgery and medical procedures.

Quality Control

Our Desflurane is manufactured and tested to meet the highest pharmaceutical standards, including relevant pharmacopoeial monographs (e.g., USP, Ph. Eur.). Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing for identity, purity, potency, and impurity profiles using advanced techniques like GC and HPLC. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all specifications and results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. Due to its highly volatile nature, containers must be kept upright and sealed when not in use to prevent loss and maintain purity. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
