Description

Adipic Acid-13C6 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of adipic acid, where all six carbon atoms are the carbon-13 isotope. This compound is essential for advanced analytical applications, providing an internal standard for precise quantification and metabolic pathway tracing using techniques like mass spectrometry and NMR. It is a critical material for researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and environmental science sectors requiring high-fidelity isotopic labeling.

Application

• Used as an internal standard for the accurate quantification of adipic acid and related compounds in complex matrices via GC-MS or LC-MS.
• Essential in metabolic flux analysis and tracer studies to elucidate biochemical pathways in plant, microbial, and mammalian systems.
• Facilitates drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) research in pharmaceutical development.
• Enables precise environmental monitoring and degradation studies of nylon precursors and other industrial chemicals.
• Supports forensic analysis and doping control where isotopic pattern recognition is crucial.
• Applied in the synthesis of isotope-labeled polymers and specialty materials for research purposes.
