Description
Capsanthin is a ketocarotenoid phytochemical reference standard supplied as ROTICHROM® dCHR grade for chromatographic analysis. Bearing CAS number 465-42-9 and empirical formula C₄₀H₅₆O₃, it has a molar mass of 584,85 g/mol and serves identification and quantification tasks involving paprika-type and related natural pigments. The material is packed as 5 mg in glass, making it convenient for standards preparation, method setup, and comparative chromatography in phytochemical laboratories. Offered by manufacturer Carl ROTH, this capsanthin reference supports analytical work on plant extracts where defined carotenoid markers improve peak assignment and quantification reliability. Typical use cases include food colourant studies, botanical research, and natural-product quality control that rely on characterised xanthophyll-related standards. ROTICHROM® dCHR quality is intended for chromatographic reference applications requiring consistent material behaviour. The compact glass unit helps laboratories keep controlled stocks for thin-layer and related techniques without excess inventory.
This article is part of Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about Capsanthin, ROTICHROM® dCHR, 5 mg, glass
What is this article?
Capsanthin, ROTICHROM® dCHR, 5 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.
