Expiration Notes:
· Expiration date valid for unopened ampul stored in compliance with the recommended conditions.
· Uncertainty, concentration, and expiration of the RM are based on the unopened product being stored according to the
recommended condition found in the storage field.
Purity Notes:
· Purity and/or chemical identity are determined by one or more of the following techniques: GC/FID, HPLC, GC/µECD,
GC/MS, LC/MS, RI, and/or melting point.
· Compounds with a listed purity of less than 99% have been weight corrected to compensate for impurities and/or salts.
A correction factor is used to calculate the amount of compound necessary to achieve the desired concentration of the
parent compound in solution.
· Purity of isomeric compounds is reported as the sum of the isomers.
· Purity values are rounded to the nearest whole number.
Uncertainty Value Notes:
· Uncertainties are determined using data from balances and glassware, raw material purity, and, when significant,
equipment tolerances or calibration results.
Manufacturing Notes:
· Concentration is based upon gravimetric preparation using either a balance whose calibration has been verified daily
using NIST traceable weights, and/or dilutions with Class A glassware.
Handling Notes:
· Stability of the unopened product, when stored in compliance with the recommended conditions, is guaranteed through
the expiration displayed on the product label and certificate. Contact Restek for additional opened product stability
information, with the knowledge/understanding that open product stability is subject to the specific handling and
environmental conditions to which the product is exposed. For your convenience Restek supplies deactivated vials with
most standards packed in 2mL ampules. Larger volume deactivated vials are available through Restek as a custom
ordered item. Additionally, Restek sells DMDCS for the purpose of glassware deactivation as catalog number 31861,
which includes complete instructions.
