Iodohippurate Dihydrate For Radiopharmaceutical Preparations EP Impurity A CAS 88-67-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Iodohippurate Dihydrate For Radiopharmaceutical Preparations EP Impurity A (CAS 88-67-5), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C7H5IO2, MW 248.02 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, Iodohippurate Dihydrate For Radiopharmaceutical Preparations EP Impurity A is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 248.02 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 quantitative analysis by HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, or GC-MS as an external calibration standard; it can also be used for spiked-recovery experiments, LOD/LOQ determination, and LC-MS/MS multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) calibration.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Iodohippurate Dihydrate For Radiopharmaceutical Preparations EP Impurity A 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.
