Desfuroyl Ceftiofur

The principal metabolite formed when the veterinary cephalosporin ceftiofur loses its furoyl thioester side chain, Desfuroyl Ceftiofur retains the intact aminothiazolyl cephalosporin core, expressed as C14H15N5O5S3 with a molecular weight of 429.49. Residue monitoring in edible tissues and milk targets this compound because it persists after the parent drug has been cleared, so a characterised standard is needed to anchor those measurements. Laboratories therefore use it for method development and validation, for confirming identity against incurred residues, and for calibration in quantitative residue analysis. It appears as a white to light beige solid, must be stored at -80 °C (±5 °C) and is shipped with dry ice. Pack sizes from 1 mg to 1 g, including 5 mg, 10 mg, 25 mg, 35 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg and 250 mg, are listed. Quotations and documentation can be provided on request.
