Recommended for quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.
CATO supplies Alprostadil (Prostaglandin E1) EP Impurity I (CAS 35900-16-4), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C22H38O5, MW 382.53 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Structurally, Alprostadil (Prostaglandin E1) EP Impurity I (C22H38O5) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 382.53 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
CATO manufactures Alprostadil (Prostaglandin E1) EP Impurity 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.
