Description
DL-Erythro-dihydrosphingosine is a synthetic biochemical compound provided at a minimum purity of 95 % for laboratory research. It is identified by CAS number 3102-56-5 and the empirical formula C₁₈H₃₉NO₂, with a molar mass of 301,51 g/mol. The synthetic origin and defined assay support reproducible work in lipid-related chemistry, sphingolipid studies and broader biochemical method development. This grade is supplied in a 25 mg pack size, offering a practical balance between experimental flexibility and controlled consumption of specialised material. Clear molecular descriptors allow accurate preparation of solutions and stoichiometric calculations. Product data from manufacturer Carl ROTH help laboratories document identity, purity and pack configuration within standard quality and inventory systems. With minimum 95 % purity, a stated empirical formula and known molar mass, the reagent is suited to analytical comparison, structure–activity exploration and routine bench protocols that require a characterised amino alcohol lipid analogue. The synthetic designation further clarifies provenance for users who prefer non-isolated material. Overall, DL-Erythro-dihydrosphingosine in this 25 mg presentation delivers transparent specifications for professional biochemical research environments.

Questions about DL-Erythro-dihydrosphingosine, min. 95 %, synthetic, 25 mg
What is this article?
DL-Erythro-dihydrosphingosine, min. 95 %, synthetic, 25 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Lipids, steroids & fatty acids, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Life Science & Microbiology.
A lipid, a steroid or a fatty acid is specified by chain length, saturation and purity. Esters and free acids are different compounds. Many are supplied in a small amount under inert gas because they oxidise. The physical form, oil or powder, follows from the structure.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
