Mix no. 5 of the LC multi-pesticide standards contains 30 organonitrogen compounds, each at 100 µg/mL in acetonitrile. The 1 mL ampoule is a certified reference material for pesticide analysis by LC-MS/MS.

Part of a series of ten mixes

No. 5 is the fifth of ten ampoules in the multi-pesticide series. The mixes are grouped for long-term stability and can be reordered individually. All ten are available together in the LC Multi-Pesticide Standard Kit. The ampoule is called LC Multi-Residue Pesticide Standard #5 (item no. 31976), and the other numbers in the series carry the item numbers 31972 to 31975 (no. 1 to 4) and 31977 to 31981 (no. 6 to 10).

Storage and shelf life

The ampoule is stored at 10 °C or colder, and the shelf life is 3 to 12 months. It is shipped at ambient temperature. The complete kit with all ten mixes, by contrast, is stored at -20 °C or colder and delivered on ice.

Single ampoule or kit

Mix no. 5 is one of the ten mixes of the kit, which together covers 204 compounds. Anyone who only needs the 30 organonitrogen compounds orders the single ampoule. For full coverage of the series, the kit is the right choice. The mixes are grouped for long-term stability and are each analysed separately.
