Glycocholic Acid Sodium Salt (CAS 863-57-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C26H42NO6Na and a molecular weight of 487.61 g/mol.
Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Glycocholic Acid Sodium Salt is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 487.61 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Glycocholic Acid Sodium Salt 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.
