Carbohydrate Standards

A pile of white sugar cubes neatly stacked against a plain white background. The cubes are uniform in size and shape, suggesting a sense of order and simplicity. The image highlights the granular texture of the sugar cubes.

 Carbohydrates, also known as saccharides, are the macronutrients found as sugars, fibers, and starches in food. They are biomolecules made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms and commonly have a hydrogen and oxygen ratio of 2:1. 

We offer a broad selection of carbohydrate standards ranging from simple to complex carbohydrates for analytical testing, including pharma release testing, pharma method development, and quality control testing of food and beverages. Our standards are available in a variety of quality grades suitable for analysis by chromatographical methods.

Our offering of carbohydrate standards includes: 

Monosaccharides

Our offering includes common monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose, as analytical standards or as secondary pharmaceutical standards / certified reference materials.

Disaccharides

Our offering of disaccharide standards includes lactose, sucrose, maltitol, maltose, D-(+)-melibiose, palatinose, D-(+)-turanose, D-(+)-cellobiose, and galactinol dihydrate.

Oligosaccharides

We provide standards for several oligosaccharides such as isomaltotriose, 1-kestose, D-(+)-melezitose, nystose, verbascose, D-(+)-raffinose pentahydrate, beta-cyclodextrin, and acarbose.

Polysaccharides & Starches

Our portfolio includes dextran and pullulan standards for GPC or a standard for starch assay kits.

Carbohydrate Solutions for Ion Chromatography

Our range of carbohydrate standards also includes their certified reference material (CRM) solutions for ion chromatography applications.

Related Applications
Sample Preparation by Filtration
Filtration separates substances to reduce sample complexity and increase analyte purity, improving analytical results.
Sample Purification
Purification methods for downstream analysis reduce sample complexity, remove interferences, and concentrate analytes for more accurate results.
Small Molecule HPLC
Small molecules are ions and compounds of molecular weight typically less than 900 daltons. These compounds can be effectively separated and analyzed by HPLC, UHPLC and LC-MS using mainly silica particles or monolithic stationary phases with a broad range of column chemistries (modifications).
Mass Spectrometry
Mass spectrometry (MS) is an analytical tool used to identify compounds, determine chemical structure, and assess isotopic abundance. In MS, samples are ionized, and the resulting ions are identified based on their mass-to-charge (m/z) ratios.
