Simplify Your Analysis of Furan and Alkylfurans with Restek’s New Multicomponent CRM Mix
Author(s)Restek Corporation
Designed for food safety labs analyzing these emerging compounds of interest, Restek’s new multi-component mix meets all compounds listed by AOAC SMPR 2019.004 and Commission Recommendation (EU) 2022/495. By combining eight furan and alkylfuran compounds into one ampul, calibration complexity is reduced, enabling labs to minimize errors, save time, and decrease costs.
A high concentration of 100 μg/mL adds additional flexibility in creating working standards, and an optimized SPME Arrows and GC-MS method helps labs streamline method development.
The Furan/Alkylfurans Standard (cat.# 33334) is a certified reference material (CRM) manufactured and QC-tested in Restek’s ISO-accredited labs.
