Chemical Structure

Lactulose EP Impurity B CAS 10257-28-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 180.16 g/mol gives Lactulose EP Impurity B distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Lactulose EP Impurity B (CAS 10257-28-0, C6H12O6) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Based on its molecular formula C6H12O6, Lactulose EP Impurity B contains a carbohydrate-derived structure; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 180.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Lactulose EP Impurity B under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
