Description
(-)-Epicatechin is a chemical reference material offered in ROTICHROM® HPLC grade for chromatographic analysis and scientific research. It carries CAS number 490-46-0 and EG number 207-710-1, with empirical formula C₁₅H₁₄O₆ and a molar mass of 290,27 g/mol. Supplied as a 20 mg glass pack, it provides a practical quantity for method development, calibration and analytical comparison in research and quality-control laboratories. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH, this ROTICHROM® HPLC preparation is intended for users who need well-characterised standards in high-performance liquid chromatography. (-)-Epicatechin is widely applied in natural-product chemistry, flavonoid research and related analytical workflows where defined reference compounds are required. The glass packaging supports careful handling and helps maintain material quality under laboratory conditions. Scientists working on polyphenol profiling, food analysis and plant secondary metabolites can use this standard for peak identification, system suitability testing and quantitative HPLC methods, supporting consistent and reproducible analytical results.

Questions about (-)-Epicatechin, ROTICHROM® HPLC, 20 mg, glass
What is this article?
(-)-Epicatechin, ROTICHROM® HPLC, 20 mg, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
HPLC grade limits the absorbance and the residue that would appear as peaks or baseline drift. LC-MS grade goes further on metal ions and on particles that would suppress a mass spectrum. A solvent that is only analytical grade is a false economy on an LC-MS system.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
