Description

General description

SupraSolv MS is dedicated for use in gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometric detection. SupraSolv solvents offer the largest specified retention time range, a clear baseline and a minimal signal-to-noise ratio leading to reliable and reproducible analysis results.

Application

• The composition of chemicals and anti-osteogenic properties in the volatile extracts from Homalomena gigantea rhizome: This study highlights methanol′s role in the extraction and analysis of volatile organic compounds from medicinal plants, providing insights valuable for researchers in pharmacology and natural product chemistry (Thanh et al., 2024).



• A homochiral tartrate-bridged dinuclear chromium(III) complex anion with a resonance-assisted hydrogen bond for proton conduction: Methanol is used as a solvent in the synthesis of complex inorganic compounds, which are essential in developing new materials for energy applications, such as proton exchange membranes (Dunatov et al., 2024).
