Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Amino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropteridine-7-carboxylic acid.
CATO supplies 2-Amino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropteridine-7-carboxylic acid (CAS 31010-60-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H5N5O3, MW 207.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
2-Amino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropteridine-7-carboxylic acid (C7H5N5O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
CATO manufactures 2-Amino-4-oxo-3,4-dihydropteridine-7-carboxylic 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.
