General description

A kit of NIST traceable ethanol standards suitable for calibration of ethanol testing methods. These Certified Reference Materials are widely used in forensic analysis and clinical toxicology applications for determination of blood alcohol content.

Application

The certified reference solution (CRM) in solution can also be used as follows:

  • Analysis of ethanol content by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy in whole blood samples
  • Development of a paper-based biosensor for directly measuring ethanol content in whole blood based on enzymatic colorimetric assessment combined with in-situ headspace gas separation
  • Detection and quantitative analysis of ethanol and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in bovine blood samples by gas chromatography coupled to vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy (GC-VUV)
  • Development and validation of an analytical method based on head space-gas chromatography (HS-GC) combined with flame ionization detector (FID) to quantify ethanol in blood samples

Features and Benefits

  • Fully characterized under ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 accreditation
  • Accompanied with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (CoA) with data on stability, homogeneity, accuracy of concentration, uncertainty, and traceability
  • Rigorously tested through real-time stability studies to ensure accuracy and shelf life
  • Gravimetrically prepared using qualified precision balances to ensure minimal uncertainty
  • Flame sealed under argon into ampoules for long-term shelf life
  • Offered in a convenient, DEA-exempt format to improve laboratory efficiency

Ethanol production for use as a biofuel is mainly achieved through simultaneous saccharification and fermentation by yeast. Operating at ≥40°C would be beneficial in terms of increasing efficiency of the process and reducing costs, but yeast does not grow efficiently
