Product Details
Description:
This product is a 0.6% (w/v) solution of high-purity acetic acid (CH₃COOH) in sterile, purified water. Acetic acid is a simple carboxylic acid, classified as a weak acid, and is one of the most fundamental reagents used in a wide range of laboratory applications.
In a research context, dilute acetic acid solutions are commonly utilized as a pH adjusting agent, a component of buffer systems (such as acetate buffers), a solvent for certain compounds, or as a reagent in various biochemical and histological procedures, including protein precipitation and staining protocols.
Intended Use
- This product is sold strictly for in vitro laboratory research and development purposes ONLY.
- It is NOT intended for human or veterinary use, consumption, diagnostics, or therapeutic applications.
- This solution is intended for use as a general-purpose laboratory reagent for procedures such as pH control, protein precipitation, or as a component in buffer systems.
- This product is NOT an FDA-approved drug, dietary supplement, or cosmetic or intended for any clinical use.
Handling and Storage
- Storage: Store solution at controlled room temperature, 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F), in a tightly sealed container. Protect from light and keep in a dry place.
- Safety: While dilute, this is an acidic solution. Handle using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, lab coat, and eye protection, within a controlled laboratory environment.
Quality Assurance
- Our 0.6% Acetic Acid Solution is prepared using high-purity, glacial acetic acid and sterile, purified water.
- Each batch is verified for precise concentration and purity.
