Description

Dansyl-γ-Amino-n-Butyric Acid Cyclohexylammonium Salt is a high-purity, fluorescent-labeled derivative of the neurotransmitter GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid). This compound is specifically engineered for advanced research and analytical applications where precise detection and quantification are paramount. It is an essential reagent for scientists and quality control professionals in pharmaceutical development, neurochemical research, and analytical method validation.

Application

• HPLC and LC-MS Analytical Standards: Used as a primary reference standard for the quantification of GABA and related compounds in complex biological matrices.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Employed in method development to identify and quantify process-related impurities or degradation products in GABAergic drug substances.
• Neurochemical Research: Serves as a fluorescent probe or tracer in studies of GABA uptake, release, and receptor binding mechanisms.
• Clinical Diagnostics: Acts as a derivatization agent for the sensitive detection of amino acids and neurotransmitters in bodily fluids for diagnostic assays.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Utilized in creating fluorometric assays for enzyme activity (e.g., GABA transaminase) or transporter function.
• Food and Nutraceutical Analysis: Applied in the accurate measurement of GABA content in functional foods, supplements, and botanical extracts.

Quality Control

Every batch of Dansyl-γ-Amino-n-Butyric Acid Cyclohexylammonium Salt is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We guarantee high chemical purity and batch-to-batch consistency suitable for sensitive analytical applications. Comprehensive testing includes identity confirmation, purity assay, and impurity profiling. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your research or quality protocols.

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 nature, the container should be kept in a desiccated environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider storing under an inert atmosphere.
