Description

Glycerol-D5 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of glycerol, where five hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium (D). This high-purity compound is essential for applications requiring precise internal standards and metabolic pathway tracing. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and analytical chemistry sectors for advanced spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Used in GC-MS and LC-MS methods for the accurate quantification of glycerol and related metabolites in complex biological matrices.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Enables detailed studies of lipid metabolism, glycolysis, and gluconeogenesis in biomedical and nutritional research.
• NMR Spectroscopy: Serves as a deuterated solvent or a probe for mechanistic studies in organic chemistry and structural biology.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Assists in the identification and quantification of process-related impurities in drug substances and products.
• Biomarker Research: Facilitates the discovery and validation of metabolic biomarkers in clinical and diagnostic applications.
• Quality Control & Method Development: Provides a reliable reference standard for analytical method validation in regulated environments.
