General description

5-Pentadecylresorcinol is a resorcinol derivative, that can be found in the wood of Grevillea.banksii.
Occurs in peel and flesh of unripe mangos, Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae).

Application

5-Pentadecylresorcinol has been used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in a mixture of alkylresorcinols using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS). It may also be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in:
  • Goji berries using ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS).
  • Mango (Mangifera indica L.) peels using high-performance liquid chromatography/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC/APCI-MS).

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
