Chemical Structure

Xylitol CAS 87-99-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Xylitol.

CATO supplies Xylitol (CAS 87-99-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H12O5, MW 152.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, Xylitol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 152.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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), Xylitol 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.
