Description

Benzo(B)Fluoranthene D12 is a deuterium-labeled internal standard of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) Benzo[b]fluoranthene, essential for precise quantitative analysis. This isotopically labeled compound is critical for ensuring analytical accuracy and reliability in complex matrices by correcting for losses during sample preparation. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories and research institutions in the environmental monitoring, food safety, and petrochemical industries for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) applications.

Application

• Internal Standard for GC-MS and LC-MS/MS quantification of PAHs in environmental samples (soil, water, air particulates).
• Calibration standard for analytical method development and validation in food safety testing (e.g., for smoked or grilled products).
• Quality control and assurance standard in petrochemical and fuel analysis laboratories.
• Critical reagent in occupational health and safety monitoring for PAH exposure.
• Research tool in environmental fate studies, toxicology, and metabolic pathway analysis of PAHs.
• Reference material for the calibration of spectroscopic and chromatographic instrumentation.
