Usage and Safety

Application

Formic acid (FA) 98% - 100% is a mobile phase component used in liquid chromatography − mass spectrometry (LC-MS) system for fatty acid profiling of oil seed crops. It can also be used in the quantitative-qualitative analysis of wheatgrass phenolic compounds.

Formic acid 98–100% can be used as a mobilephase additive for the comparative studies using DAD (Diode Array Detector)detection.

Modified QuEChERS method combined with ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for detection of cyclopiazonic acid in feeds: This study demonstrates the use of 98-100% formic acid in a modified QuEChERS method, enhancing the efficiency of toxin detection in animal feeds, crucial for maintaining food safety and environmental health (Peng et al., 2024).

Adapting Fabric Phase Sorptive Extraction as an Innovative Multitool for Sample Transfer and Extraction in Pharmacokinetic Analysis Followed by LC-MS Determination of Levofloxacin in Plasma Samples: This study utilizes formic acid in developing advanced extraction methods for pharmacokinetic analysis, critical for drug development and therapeutic monitoring in pharmaceutical research (Ekin Dolaksız et al., 2024).

Stability Indicating Method Development and Validation of Glycyrrhizin Using RP-HPLC-DAD: Application to Glycyrrhiza glabra Extract: This research uses formic acid in chromatographic analyses to ensure the stability and quality of herbal medicine compounds, relevant in both pharmaceutical and biotechnological fields (Lyngdoh et al., 2024).
