Analytical standards of crocin 1 (#80391; crocetin bis (gentiobiosyl) ester, purity ≥ 95%), crocin 2 (#80392; crocetin gentiobiosylglucosyl ester, purity ≥ 95%), and picrocrocin (#89256; purity ≥ 95%) were purchased from PhytoLab GmbH & Co. KG (Vestenbergsgreuth, Germany), while safranal (2,3-dihydro-2,2,6-trimethylbenzaldehyde, purity ≥ 90%) was purchased from Merck KGaA (Darmstadt, Germany). Solvents, such as HPLC grade acetonitrile, methanol, and formic acid were supplied by Merck KGaA.
Picrocrocin
Manufactured by Phytolab
Sourced in Germany
Picrocrocin is a key chemical compound found in the saffron plant (Crocus sativus). It is a glycoside that contributes to the distinct flavor and aroma of saffron. Picrocrocin is commonly used as a reference standard in the analysis and quality control of saffron and saffron-derived products.

Analytical standards of trans-4-GG crocin (crocetin bis-(gentiobiosyl) ester), trans-3-Gg crocin (crocetin gentiobiosyl glucosyl ester) and picrocrocin were purchased from Phytolab (Vestenbergsgreuth, Germany) while p-nitroaniline was obtained from Sigma Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Acetonitrile and methanol, used for the chromatographic analyses, were of HPLC-MS grade and acquired from Scharlau (Barcelona, Spain). Formic acid was obtained from Sigma Aldrich. The ultrapure water used was distilled and purified using the Milli-Q, Advantage A10 system from Millipore (Bedfore, MA, USA).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
