Ceftizoxime sodium CAS 68401-82-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ceftizoxime sodium (CAS 68401-82-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H12N5O5S2Na, MW 405.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ceftizoxime sodium is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 405.38 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), Ceftizoxime sodium 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.
