    Product Description

    2,6-Xylidine-d6 (hydrochloride) (Item No. 38920) is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 2,6-xylidine (Item No. 38856) by GC- or LC-MS. 2,6-Xylidine is categorized as an anesthetic metabolite.1,2,3 2,6-Xylidine is a metabolite of xylazine (Item Nos. 37854 | 22641), lidocaine (Item No. 20081), and bupivacaine (Item No. 31718). It is also a precursor in the synthesis of bupivacaine, mepivacaine (Item No. 23402), and ropivacaine.4 This product is intended for research and forensic applications.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
