General description

Vitamin K2 (MK-7), also known as menaquinone-7, is a homolog of Vitamin K2. Reports suggest that supplementation of Vitamin K2 (MK-7) can improve bone strength and prevent bone loss.

Application

This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable for use as starting material in the preparation of linearity standards, calibrators, or controls in LC-MS/MS vitamin K2 testing applications such as assessment of vitamin K2 deficiency and detection and quantification of vitamin K2 in food or nutritional products
Vitamin K2 (MK-7) may be used as a certified reference material (CRM) for the determination of the analyte in biological samples and fermented foods by high performance liquid chromatography methods.
