CATO supplies 477243-06-4 C16 Ceramide Ceramide (Egg) Ceramide (Egg, Chicken) N-(hexadecanoyl)-sphing-4-enine N-hexadecanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine (CAS 477243-06-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C34H67NO3, MW 537.90 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 477243-06-4 C16 Ceramide Ceramide (Egg) Ceramide (Egg, Chicken) N-(hexadecanoyl)-sphing-4-enine N-hexadecanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 537.90 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 477243-06-4 C16 Ceramide Ceramide (Egg) Ceramide (Egg, Chicken) N-(hexadecanoyl)-sphing-4-enine N-hexadecanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine 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.
