Doxapram-d8 HCl | CAS 309-29-5
Doxapram-d8 HCl (CAS 309-29-5) is a high-quality stable isotope-labeled analog of doxapram hydrochloride designed for use as an internal standard in quantitative analytical methods. The incorporation of eight deuterium atoms provides excellent isotopic stability while maintaining nearly identical physicochemical behavior to the unlabeled compound, making it an ideal reference standard for LC-MS/MS, GC-MS, HRMS, pharmacokinetic, bioanalytical, forensic toxicology, and pharmaceutical research applications. Stable isotope-labeled compounds such as Doxapram-d8 HCl significantly improve assay accuracy by compensating for sample preparation losses, ion suppression, extraction variability, and instrument fluctuations during quantitative analysis.
At ResolveMass Laboratories Inc., Doxapram-d8 HCl is supplied exclusively for research and laboratory use. It is intended to support pharmaceutical development, analytical method development, method validation, clinical research, and quality control laboratories requiring highly reliable isotope-labeled reference materials.
Why Choose Doxapram-d8 HCl?
Stable isotope-labeled internal standards are considered the gold standard for quantitative mass spectrometry because they closely mimic the chromatographic and extraction characteristics of the target analyte while remaining distinguishable by their mass difference. Doxapram-d8 HCl co-elutes with native doxapram, allowing precise correction for analytical variability throughout the workflow.
Using Doxapram-d8 HCl can improve:
- Quantitative accuracy and precision
- Recovery correction during sample preparation
- Compensation for matrix effects and ion suppression
- Reproducibility between analytical runs
- Compliance with regulatory bioanalytical validation expectations
- Confidence in pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies
These advantages make isotope-labeled standards indispensable in regulated analytical laboratories performing quantitative LC-MS/MS assays.
Applications
Doxapram-d8 HCl is widely used across pharmaceutical, clinical, academic, and contract research laboratories for:
- LC-MS/MS quantitative bioanalysis
- High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS)
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies
- Bioavailability and bioequivalence studies
- Drug metabolism research
- Clinical research assays
- Toxicology testing
- Therapeutic drug monitoring method development
- Analytical method validation
- Pharmaceutical quality control
- Reference standard preparation
- Instrument calibration and performance verification
Because isotope-labeled compounds behave almost identically to their non-labeled counterparts during extraction and chromatographic separation, they are particularly valuable when developing highly sensitive quantitative methods.
Chemical Information
Doxapram is a respiratory stimulant belonging to the pyrrolidinone class of compounds. The isotope-labeled version, Doxapram-d8 HCl, contains eight deuterium atoms strategically incorporated into the molecular structure while preserving its analytical characteristics. This isotopic substitution produces a predictable mass shift without significantly altering chromatographic retention or extraction efficiency, making it highly suitable for quantitative mass spectrometric analysis.
