2-Ethoxyethanol

2-Ethoxyethanol is a glycol ether solvent widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, coatings, inks, and chemical synthesis. It has the molecular formula C2H5OCH2CH2OH, a molecular weight of 90.12 g/mol, and is identified by CAS No. 110-80-5. Due to its reproductive toxicity concerns, 2-ethoxyethanol is strictly regulated and may be monitored as a residual solvent or process-related impurity in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), excipients, and finished products.

Accurate determination of 2-ethoxyethanol is routinely performed using gas chromatography (GC-FID or GC-MS). Reliable analysis requires high-quality GC standards to ensure sensitivity, precision, and reproducibility at low concentration levels. Laboratories utilize GC calibration standards and GC reference standards for method development, calibration, and routine quality control. The use of certified GC standards and GC analytical standards supports validated methods and regulatory compliance, while GC certified reference materials (GC CRM standards) provide traceability and confidence in measurement results. Ready-to-use GC calibration solutions and GC standard solutions simplify instrument calibration and ongoing monitoring.

At Manasa Life Sciences, we provide high-purity 2-ethoxyethanol GC standards, calibration solutions, and certified reference materials, supported by technical expertise in method development, validation, and regulatory alignment. Our solutions enable accurate quantification, strong impurity control, and compliance with global pharmaceutical and environmental regulatory requirements.
