Description
Fatty acid methyl ester mixture ROTICHROM® FO 5 is a specialised chromatographic reference preparation supplied as a ready-to-use blend for analytical and method-development work. The material is characterised by a density of approximately 0,88 g/cm³, a flash point of 110 °C and a boiling point above 200 °C, supporting handling and documentation in routine laboratory practice. Packaged as 100 mg in plastic, the compact unit quantity suits calibration sets, comparative runs and small-scale qualitative checks where a defined fatty acid methyl ester profile is required. Offered in the ROTICHROM® FO 5 grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the mixture integrates into workflows that rely on consistent reference materials for lipid-related chromatography and related separation techniques. Laboratories can incorporate the preparation into standard operating procedures for identification support, system suitability checks or educational demonstrations without the need to prepare multi-component ester blends in-house. Clear physical property data facilitate risk assessment and instrument setup, while the plastic pack format supports straightforward storage and dispensing at the bench. This product addresses the practical demand for a compact, well-described fatty acid methyl ester mixture in analytical chemistry environments.

Questions about Fatty acid methyl ester mixture, ROTICHROM® FO 5, 100 mg, plastic
What is this article?
Fatty acid methyl ester mixture, ROTICHROM® FO 5, 100 mg, plastic 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.
Which category should I open next?
