General description
Application
Used as an extraction solvent to analyze nucleotides of Drosophila gut microbiome in flies prior to LC-MS analysis.
Features and Benefits
- suitability tested and specified for UHPLC-MS and UHPLC-UV: for analytical flexibility
- specified quality in positive and negative in positive and negative electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric-pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (APCI-MS) for lowest detection limits and confidence in analyses for all important MS modes (test 1)
—ESI/APCI (-) < 10 ppb
- lowest impurity profile: for interference-free baselines (test 2)
- Microfiltered through 0.2 μm filter (test 3) to provide
—reduced risk of column clogging
- packed in borosilicate glass bottles for minimized metal ion contaminations
- lowest levels of trace metal impurities for a minimum metal ion adduct formation
- lowest level of polyethylene glycol (PEG) impurities in UHPLC-MS solvent lineup (PEG S/N signal-to-noise-ratio < 50)

How to Find a Lot/Batch Number for COA
Lot and Batch Numbers can be found on a product's label following the words 'Lot' or 'Batch'.
Aldrich Products
For a lot number such as TO09019TO, enter it as 09019TO (without the first two letters 'TO').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as 05427ES-021, enter it as 05427ES (without the filling-code '-021').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as STBB0728K9, enter it as STBB0728 without the filling-code 'K9'.
Not Finding What You Are Looking For?
In some cases, a COA may not be available online. If your search was unable to find the COA you can request one.
