Potassium Gluconate (CAS 299-27-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H11O7K and a molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C6H11O7K, Potassium Gluconate contains a carbohydrate-derived structure; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
