Description

Phosphatidylethanol CAS NO 765260-45-5 is a specialized phospholipid derivative of significant interest in biochemical and clinical research. This compound serves as a direct, long-term biomarker for ethanol consumption, offering unique value in forensic and diagnostic applications. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, diagnostic kit manufacturers, and forensic laboratories for studies related to alcohol abuse, liver disease, and biomarker validation.

Application

• Clinical Biomarker Research: As a specific and stable biomarker for monitoring chronic alcohol consumption in clinical and forensic settings.
• Diagnostic Assay Development: A critical reference standard for calibrating and validating diagnostic tests and kits (e.g., ELISA, LC-MS/MS) designed to detect alcohol abuse.
• Forensic Toxicology: Used in post-mortem analyses and legal cases to provide objective evidence of alcohol intake over an extended period.
• Biomedical Research: Investigation into the biochemical effects of ethanol on cell membranes, lipid metabolism, and organ damage (e.g., in hepatology).
• Pharmaceutical Studies: Employed in drug development research related to alcoholism treatment and therapies targeting alcohol-induced pathologies.
• Reference Material: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control in laboratories performing sensitive lipidomics analyses.

Quality Control

Our Phosphatidylethanol is produced and controlled under stringent quality management systems. Each batch is subjected to comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity assays and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for research and diagnostic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and related substances are available upon request to support your regulatory and quality documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent oxidation and ensure long-term stability. Allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to minimize moisture uptake.
