As furan and alkylfurans testing continues to evolve, food testing labs rely on accurate certified reference materials (CRMs) paired with dependable GC columns and optimized chromatography to analyze these critical compounds.

Restek’s three multicomponent mixes, manufactured and QC-tested in Restek’s ISO-accredited labs, provide all native and labeled compounds listed by AOAC SMPR 2019.004 and Commission Recommendation (EU) 2022/495 in three convenient ampuls.

Furan/Alkylfurans Standard (cat.# 33334)

  • Furan
  • 2-Methylfuran
  • 3-Methylfuran
  • 2,5-Dimethylfuran
  • 2-Ethylfuran
  • 2-Butylfuran
  • 2-Pentylfuran
  • 2,3-Dimethylfuran

Labeled Furan/Alkylfurans Standard Mix 1 (cat.# 33335)

  • Furan-d4
  • 2-Methylfuran-d3
  • 3-Methylfuran-d3

Labeled Furan/Alkylfurans Standard Mix 2 (cat.# 33336)

  • 2,5-dimethylfuran-d6
  • 2-Ethylfuran-d5
  • 2-Butylfuran-d9
  • 2-Pentylfuran-d11

Combining all listed furan and alkylfurans compounds into three ampuls reduces your preparation complexity, helping minimize errors, save time, and decrease costs—especially for labs performing isotope dilution. And with a high concentration of 100 μg/mL, labs gain additional flexibility for creating working standards too.
