Aflatoxin M2 CAS 6885-57-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Aflatoxin M2 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.

Aflatoxin M2 (CAS 6885-57-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H14O7 and a molecular weight of 330.29 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Aflatoxin M2 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 330.29 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.
