Products classified under HTS 2939.61.00.00
Ergometrine Maleate
Ergometrine maleate is the maleate salt of ergometrine, a natural alkaloid derived from rye ergot (Claviceps purpurea). It is classified under HTS 2939.61.00.00 as a salt of ergometrine, fitting chapter 29's scope for separate chemically defined organic compounds and their salts. Used primarily in obstetrics to induce labor and control postpartum hemorrhage.
Ergometrine Tartrate
Ergometrine tartrate is the tartaric acid salt of ergometrine, standardized for pharmaceutical applications. This product falls under HTS 2939.61.00.00 per chapter note (C)(1), classifying inorganic/organic salts with their parent alkaloid. Primarily used for uterine contraction in medical settings.
Pharmaceutical Grade Ergometrine Hydrochloride
Ergometrine hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt meeting cGMP standards for API manufacturing. Classified under HTS 2939.61.00.00 as it qualifies as a chemically defined organic compound salt per chapter note (a) and (c). Used as active ingredient in postpartum hemorrhage treatments.
Ergometrine Methanesulfonate
Ergometrine methanesulfonate (ergonovine mesylate) is a mesylate salt form preferred for its solubility profile. Falls under HTS 2939.61.00.00 as a salt of the named alkaloid ergometrine, per classification rule for salts following parent compound. Used in veterinary obstetrics.
Research Grade Ergometrine Tartrate
High-purity (>99%) ergometrine tartrate for laboratory research and synthesis. Classified HTS 2939.61.00.00 as it meets criteria for chemically defined alkaloid salts without retail packaging. Used in biochemical studies of uterine smooth muscle.
