CATO supplies Glycerol Impurity 44 (CAS CATO-C4X-217144), a pharmacopoeial impurity reference standard (molecular formula C6H14O8PNa, MW 268.13 g/mol) used for the identification and quantification of trace impurities in APIs.
Based on its molecular formula C6H14O8PNa, Glycerol Impurity 44 contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, a phosphate ester group; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Glycerol Impurity 44 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.
