The occurrence of Lactitol EP Impurity B is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Lactitol EP Impurity B (CAS 53796-37-5, C12H24O11) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, Lactitol EP Impurity B is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 344.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.
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 manufactures Lactitol EP Impurity B 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.
