Application: | Pentadecafluorooctanoic acid solution may be used as an ion-pairing agent in the determination of chlorhexidine in body fluids and pharmaceutical preparations, using high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). It may also be used as an additive in the extraction of potassium ion in aqueous solution using supercritical carbon dioxide. |
Application: | Pentadecafluorooctanoic acid solution may be used as an ion-pairing reagent in the development of a chromatographic method for the separation and determination of underivatized proteinic amino acids using liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detection (LC-ELSD) and atmospheric pressure ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-API-MS), respectively. |
Application: | Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support. |
Other Notes: | The customer needs to make sure that the standard is homogeneous, this can be achieved by shaking, vortexing , or sonicating the ampoule before opening the ampoule. Care should be taken when opening the ampoule to avoid any injuries from the broken glass. The standard should be transferred to a clean and appropriate vial or flask using clean pipettes or micro pipettes. The vial should be immediately capped to avoid any loss or evaporation of the solvent. After opening the ampoule, the standard should not be stored or kept in the ampoule. To preserve the integrity of the product, the standard should be transferred to an appropriate vial that must be capped and stored according to the recommendation on the Certificate of Analysis. |
