About Miglitol

Miglitol (CAS 72432-03-2) is a high-purity reference standard of Miglitol offered by Vaqora Chemicals. The compound has the formula C8H17NO5, corresponding to a molecular weight of 207.22 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is (2R,3R,4R,5S)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)piperidine-3,4,5-triol. Alternative names: Bay m 1099 and Bay-m-1099.

The product is provided as a solid. Keep the vial tightly closed, protected from light and humidity, at the temperature stated on the Certificate of Analysis. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

As a reference sample of Miglitol, it is used for identification, assay and impurity-profiling work during analytical method development, validation (AMV) and routine QC. It is used across pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer Miglitol in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
