C13 Glucose, also known as 13C-glucose or stable isotope-labeled D-glucose, is a cornerstone in modern biomedical and pharmaceutical research. This isotopically enriched compound features carbon-13 atoms replacing standard carbon-12 in the glucose molecule, typically in uniform labeling ([13C6]glucose) or position-specific forms like [1-13C]glucose or [U-13C6]glucose. With 99.9% isotopic enrichment, C13 Glucose enables precise tracking of metabolic pathways without the hazards of radioactive isotopes like 14C-glucose.
In metabolic studies, C13 Glucose serves as a tracer for glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and the TCA cycle. Researchers in diabetes, oncology, and neuroscience rely on it for flux analysis via NMR spectroscopy or mass spectrometry (MS). For instance, in cancer research, it reveals Warburg effect alterations; in neurobiology, it maps brain glucose uptake. Pharmaceutical intermediates benefit too—our C13 Glucose supports API synthesis for stable isotope-labeled drugs, compliant with FDA guidelines for USA markets.
Production demands GMP facilities to ensure pharmaceutical-grade purity (>99% chemical, 99.9% isotopic). Global Technology Co., Ltd partners with DMF/FDA-registered labs, scaling from grams for R&D to tons for industrial use. Unlike competitors plagued by China's supply chain volatility, our powerful factory guarantees stability.
Historically, C13 Glucose emerged in the 1980s with stable isotope tech advances. By 2026, demand surges 25% YoY per market reports (Grand View Research), driven by personalized medicine. In USA labs like NIH-funded centers, it's indispensable for in vivo studies—infused IV, it yields M+1 peaks in LC-MS for real-time flux data.
Key specs: Molecular formula C6H12O6 (with 13C), MW 180.16 (adjusted), white crystalline powder, soluble in water (91g/100ml). Stability exceeds 2 years at -20°C. Applications span metabolic fluxomics (e.g., 37% better resolution vs. unlabeled), drug metabolism (ADME studies), and nutraceuticals (glycaemic index testing). Our OEM/ODM services customize labeling positions, e.g., [6-13C]glucose for pentose phosphate pathway.
Compared to rivals, our C13 Glucose cuts costs by 30% via direct factory sourcing, evading middlemen. High-speed delivery: 3-5 days to USA via DHL/FedEx, dodging high shipping pitfalls. Quality assurance includes COA, HPLC/NMR reports per batch. Ready to integrate into your pipeline? Contact us now.
