Description
Caffeic acid is a phenolic phytochemical standard offered in ROTICHROM® TLC quality for thin-layer chromatography and related analytical procedures. It carries CAS number 331-39-5 and empirical formula C₉H₈O₄, a molar mass of 180,16 g/mol, and EG nr. 206-361-2. This defined identity supports its role as a reference compound when laboratories assess chromatographic behaviour, optimise detection, or document hydroxycinnamic-acid markers in plant extracts and related samples. The article is packed as 100 mg in glass, providing a workable quantity for stock and dilution series used in TLC and complementary analytical checks. Supplied by manufacturer Carl ROTH, caffeic acid in this presentation fits routine phytochemical and analytical-chemistry workflows that depend on reliable phenolic standards. Application contexts include chromatography standards, natural-product research, quality-control screening, and teaching laboratories that need a clear chemical reference on the plate and in the method documentation. Prepare solutions and handle the solid under good laboratory practice, consulting the safety information supplied with the product to maintain both analytical integrity and safe laboratory operation.
This article is part of Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about Caffeic acid, ROTICHROM® TLC, 100 mg, glass
What is this article?
Caffeic acid, ROTICHROM® TLC, 100 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
A chromatography standard is the substance, or the mix, injected so a peak can be named and quantified. Pesticide mixes, residual-solvent mixes and single-compound standards are different articles. The concentration and the solvent are the specification. The solvent has to be one the method may contain.
A reference material is the article against which another result is compared. Its value is stated, and the uncertainty of that value is part of the product. An ICP or ion standard is a solution of known concentration. A volumetric standard is for titration. A chromatography standard is the peak you match. The grade names, including pharmacopoeia and ASTM, say which impurities were limited. Identity is checked on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Medicinal grades follow the European Pharmacopoeia and USP.
