Overview

product description：

Tridecanoic acid is an aliphatic monoacid. It is complexed to β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) for structural studies. It can exist in three polymeric forms(A′, B′ and C′) when crystallized.

application：

Tridecanoic acid has been used as an internal standard for the lipid analysis of total intramuscular fat from broilers and fatty acid analysis in chinook salmon roe lipids. It has also been used as a reference standard in gas chromatography for quantifying fatty acids in meat samples.

Note

Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
