Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 927.12 g/mol gives Saikosaponin I distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Saikosaponin I (CAS 103629-71-6), molecular formula C48H78O17 and molecular weight 927.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Saikosaponin I (C48H78O17) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
CATO manufactures Saikosaponin I 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.
