Chemical Structure

Lacto-N-hexaose CAS 64003-51-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 1072.96 g/mol gives Lacto-N-hexaose distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Lacto-N-hexaose (CAS 64003-51-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C40H68N2O31, MW 1072.96 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C40H68N2O31, Lacto-N-hexaose contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 1072.96 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Lacto-N-hexaose 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.
