Deferoxamine

About Deferoxamine

Deferoxamine is a high-purity reference standard of Deferoxamine carrying the CAS registry number 70-51-9. Its molecular formula is C25H48N6O8 and its molecular weight is 560.7 g/mol. It is also known as Desferrioxamine B or Deferrioxamine.

It is supplied 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 “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

As a reference sample of Deferoxamine, it is used for identification, assay and impurity-profiling work during analytical method development, validation (AMV) and routine QC. Our customers for this product work in 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.
