Description

Tetradecanoic-6,6-D2 Acid is a stable isotope-labeled analog of myristic acid, where two deuterium atoms replace hydrogen at the 6-position. This precise labeling makes it an invaluable internal standard and tracer in quantitative mass spectrometry and metabolic research. It is essential for scientists and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and analytical chemistry sectors who require high-fidelity tools for drug metabolism studies, lipidomics, and quality control of complex biological samples.

Application

• Mass Spectrometry Internal Standard: Used for the accurate quantification of myristic acid and related lipids in biological matrices via GC-MS or LC-MS.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Enables detailed studies of fatty acid metabolism, β-oxidation, and lipid biosynthesis in pharmacological and nutritional research.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a critical reference material in the pharmacokinetic and bioanalytical analysis of drug candidates.
• Stable Isotope Labeling: Acts as a building block for the synthesis of more complex deuterated compounds for research and diagnostic applications.
• Quality Control & Method Validation: Employed in analytical laboratories to validate methods and ensure accuracy and precision in fatty acid assays.
• Nutritional Science Research: Facilitates investigations into dietary fat absorption, storage, and utilization.
