In Analytix Reporter, Issue 11 we presented a new certified reference material (CRM) mix with 16 compounds (cat. no. 93102) to test for furocoumarins. Now we extend our range with furocoumarin neat standards, complementing the furocoumarin portfolio beyond components of the mix. In the list you will also find new product additions from other phytochemical substance classes.

The entire offering of phytochemical reference materials, including standards and CRMs in neat and solution form, and the reference materials of plant extracts can be found on the website SigmaAldrich.com/Medicinalplants
