Description

Iodobenzene, [14C(U)] is a uniformly carbon-14 labeled derivative of iodobenzene, a key aromatic halide compound. This isotopically labeled version is essential for advanced research and development, enabling precise metabolic, environmental, and pharmacokinetic studies through radiotracer techniques. It is a critical reagent for scientists and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and life science sectors who require high-specific-activity compounds for autoradiography, ADME studies, and reaction mechanism elucidation.

Application

• Pharmaceutical R&D: As a radiolabeled precursor or intermediate in the synthesis of carbon-14 labeled drug candidates for metabolism and pharmacokinetic (ADME) studies.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development and environmental fate tracking of labeled pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides.
• Metabolic Pathway Analysis: Employed as a tracer to investigate biochemical pathways and degradation mechanisms in biological and environmental systems.
• Organic Synthesis Studies: Serves as a tool for elucidating reaction mechanisms, such as in cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck reactions), using tracer methodology.
• Autoradiography: Provides the radioactive source for imaging techniques used to visualize the distribution of compounds in tissues, plants, or materials.
• Chemical Reference Standard: Acts as an internal standard or calibrant in advanced analytical methods like LC-MS or radio-HPLC for quantitative analysis.

Quality Control

Every batch of Iodobenzene, [14C(U)] is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality systems to ensure identity, purity, and specific activity. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request and provide detailed data including radiochemical purity (by radio-HPLC or radio-TLC), chemical purity, specific activity, and solvent content.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C or as specified on the label) in a dedicated, well-ventilated area for radioactive materials. Due to its high volatility, ensure containers are securely sealed. Follow all local and international regulations for the storage and handling of radioactive compounds.
