| Application: | Hydroxycitronellal has been used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in fragrance samples using flow modulation comprehensive 2D GC/MS (FM GCxGC/MS) method. It may also be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in the following: • Fragrances using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with rapid scanning quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC × GC-qMS). • Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). |
| Application: | It was used as reference standard for the validation of fragrance allergens in cosmetic products using solid-phase microextraction method (SPME) - gas chromatography coupled with flame ionization detector (GC–FID). |
| Application: | Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support. |
| General description: | Hydroxycitronellal belongs to a broad range of flavor and fragrance standards for quality control of food and cosmetic products provided by Sigma-Aldrich. It is reported as a sensitizing fragrance allergen found in many products. Hydroxycitronella is commonly used in the cosmetic industry to neutralize unpleasant odors that may be present in the chemicals, to enhance the individuality and appeal of products, fragranced cosmetics including aftershaves, eye-creams, etc. |
| General description: | Hydroxycitronellal is a synthetic fragrance material used in perfumes. It can be prepared from citronellal either by hydration of citronellal bisulfite or by hydrolysis with sulphuric acid and alkali. |
