CATO manufactures 2-((Hydroxymethyl)(methyl)amino)acetic acid 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.
2-((Hydroxymethyl)(methyl)amino)acetic acid (CAS 15826-50-3), molecular formula C4H9NO3 and molecular weight 119.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-((Hydroxymethyl)(methyl)amino)acetic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 119.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
