As a certified reference material (CRM), 8-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 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.
CATO supplies 8-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 (CAS 1794940-15-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19D14, MW 256.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 8-Methylbenz[a]anthracene-d14 (C19D14) is characterized by deuterium isotope labeling, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
