Description
Zeaxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid reference standard provided as ROTICHROM® HPLC grade for high-performance liquid chromatography. With CAS number 144-68-3 and empirical formula C₄₀H₅₆O₂, the compound has a molar mass of 568,85 g/mol and is used for identification and quantification of oxygenated carotenoids in analytical chemistry. Packed as 5 mg in glass, it supports calibration, method development, and quality-control tasks in laboratories working with phytochemical and natural-product samples. This zeaxanthin standard from manufacturer Carl ROTH is suited to HPLC workflows that require a well-defined reference for peak confirmation and comparative analysis of plant extracts and related matrices. Applications include food, nutrition, and botanical research where xanthophyll profiles must be assessed with consistent reference material. The ROTICHROM® HPLC designation indicates suitability for liquid-chromatographic standards use. The small glass pack format is practical for establishing and maintaining reference stocks for routine analytical sequences.
