Prepare oximes of steroids and ketoacids prior to silylation with the Thermo Scientific™ Methoxamine (MOX) Reagent. It prevents the formation of multiple derivatives when enols are present during silylation, thereby ensuring optimal quantitation. The reagent is a 2% solution of methoxyamine–hydrogen chloride in pyridine.

  • 2% methoxyamine·HCl (M.W. 83.51) in pyridine
  • Prevents formation of multiple derivatives when enols are present during silylation
  • Supplied in amber Thermo Scientific Hypo-Vial Sample Storage Vial with septum and crimp top
