As a certified reference material (CRM), Keto Lovastatin 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.
CATO supplies Keto Lovastatin (CAS 96497-73-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C24H34O6, MW 418.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, Keto Lovastatin (C24H34O6) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 418.52 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
