Glucosamine sulfate (CAS CATO-C4X-194626) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C6H13NO5H2O4SClNa and a molecular weight of 335.68 g/mol.
Glucosamine sulfate (C6H13NO5H2O4SClNa) contains a salt form, a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.
CATO manufactures Glucosamine sulfate 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.
