Levofloxacin Hemihydrate

About Levofloxacin Hemihydrate

Levofloxacin Hemihydrate is a high-purity reference standard of Levofloxacin carrying the CAS registry number 138199-71-0. Formula C36H42F2N6O9, molecular weight 740.7 g/mol. It is also known as Levofloxacin or Levofloxacin hydrate.

The product is provided as a solid. Reference materials should be stored sealed and away from light and moisture, as specified on the accompanying COA. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

Laboratories use this Levofloxacin standard for identity and assay testing, system suitability checks and method validation supporting ANDA and DMF filings. Typical end-use sectors are pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
