This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
Guanine sulfate (CAS 10333-92-3), molecular formula C5H5N5OH2O4S and molecular weight 249.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C5H5N5OH2O4S, Guanine sulfate contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 249.20 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
As a certified reference material (CRM), Guanine sulfate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
