Chemical Structure

Bismuth Potassium Citrate CAS 57644-54-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

Bismuth Potassium Citrate (CAS 57644-54-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula BiC6H5O7K and a molecular weight of 437.18 g/mol.

Bismuth Potassium Citrate (BiC6H5O7K) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
