General description

Vanillin is a flavor and fragrance compound, found as a major constituent of natural vanilla. It′s of commercial importance in both food and non-food applications and pharmaceutical preparations. It′s well-known as an intermediate in the synthesis of herbicides, antifoaming and antimicrobial agents.

Mettler-Toledo calibration substance ME 51143093, vanillin is an analytical standard for use in the regular checking of Mettler-Toledo melting point instrument. Its value equals an average of 6 to 12 measurements with a Mettler-Toledo MP90 Excellence instrument that is calibrated against primary standards. The melting point is validated by Capillary method according to European Pharmacopeia (2.2.14.)

Application

Vanillin Mettler-Toledo calibration substance ME 51143093 is a melting point calibration standard used to calibrate Mettler-Toledo mp instruments.

Features and Benefits

  • Traceable to a primary standard (LGC, London)
  • Melting point evaluation conducted in both thermodynamic and pharmacopeia modes for physically correct and heating rate dependent melting point determinations, respectively
  • Provided with certificates of analysis and safety data sheet
  • A product of analytical standard grade to help meet the QC/QA requirements of melting point determination
  • Standard deviation up to ± 0.2 °C
