Chemical name
17-Hydroxy-6-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione
Description
Megestrol (CAS 3562-63-8) reference standard from WITEGA Laboratorien Berlin-Adlershof GmbH supports precise LC-MS/MS and GC-MS quantification. Use it as an LC-MS/MS calibration solution to establish accuracy, traceability, and confident confirmatory analysis. Produced and distributed by WITEGA, this material streamlines calibration and method validation in demanding workflows while reducing uncertainty.
Key advantages:
- High chemical purity and well-characterized identity for reliable response factors.
- Validated for LC-MS/MS and GC-MS quantification with consistent signal intensity.
- Traceable batch documentation to support audits and compliance needs.
- Suitable for calibration curves, instrument tuning, and system suitability testing.
- Designed for confirmatory analysis with robust retention and qualifier ion ratios.
Typical applications:
- Regulated laboratories requiring defensible data and quality control.
- Pharmaceutical research focused on progestin quantitation and method development.
- Residue control in food, feed, and environmental monitoring programs.
- Metabolism studies and biomarker profiling across diverse matrices.
- Multi-residue method development with streamlined calibration and verification.
This Megestrol (CAS 3562-63-8) reference standard enables robust calibration curves and traceable reporting across complex matrices. Prepare serial dilutions, assess linearity, and verify accuracy and precision. Then apply matrix-matched calibration to manage ion suppression. Finally, confirm identity using retention time and ion ratio criteria, and document results with batch records from WITEGA.
Moreover, the material functions as a traceable reference material that supports confident decision making. It integrates smoothly into LC-MS/MS or GC-MS workflows for method validation and routine confirmatory analysis. Therefore, laboratories can maintain continuity between studies and across sites, even during method transfer.
