Description
beta-Cryptoxanthin is a monohydroxy carotenoid reference standard offered as ROTICHROM® dCHR grade for chromatographic applications. It is identified by CAS number 472-70-8 and empirical formula C₄₀H₅₆O, with a molar mass of 552,85 g/mol, and is used to support identification and quantification of xanthophyll-type pigments in analytical laboratories. Supplied as a 2 mg pack in glass, the preparation suits standards handling, calibration, and method development where only small reference amounts are required. This beta-cryptoxanthin material from manufacturer Carl ROTH fits phytochemical chromatography workflows focused on plant extracts, food matrices, and natural-product profiling. Laboratories engaged in nutrition and botanical research use such defined carotenoid standards to improve peak confirmation and comparative analysis. ROTICHROM® dCHR quality is intended for analytical chromatography that depends on consistent reference behaviour. The compact glass presentation supports economical reference stocks for thin-layer and related techniques.
This article is part of Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about beta-Cryptoxanthin, ROTICHROM® dCHR, 2 mg, glass
What is this article?
beta-Cryptoxanthin, ROTICHROM® dCHR, 2 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.
