Dispensing Adapter Compatibility 500ml: 45mm neck size1L: 45mm neck size2.5L: 45mm neck size5L: 42mm neck size25L: 60mm neck size Frequent Uses Cleaning Laboratory EquipmentEffective for cleaning glassware and lab surfaces, especially when removing organic residues. It is also useful in maintaining sterile conditions by stopping microbial growth on surfaces and equipment. Staining and Fixation in HistologyUsed in histological staining and tissue fixation. Its mild acidity helps preserve cellular structures and enhances the staining contrast, particularly when used in dilute solutions. It's also a component in popular stains like Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E). pH Adjustment and Buffer PreparationIn molecular biology, biochemistry, and cell culture, Acetic Acid is used to adjust the pH of solutions and prepare acetate buffers, which help maintain stable pH conditions critical for various reactions and assays. Protein Purification and PrecipitationIt can aid in protein precipitation and purification by altering pH levels. It is particularly useful in purifying small peptides and proteins from complex mixtures. High concentration food grade acetic acid can be used for: Production of cellulose acetate for photographic film Production of polyvinyl acetate for wood glue and synthetic fibres and fabrics Cleaning products Food production and preservatives (vinegar) Medicine - production of Aspirin Food GradeMinimum Assay: >99.85% w/w Molecular Formula: CH3COOH Molecular Weight: 60.05 g/mol Boiling Point: 117-118°C Melting Point: 16.2°C Density at 25°C (g/cm3): 1.049 Non-Volatile Matter: <0.003% w/w99.85% w/wMolecular Formula: CH3COOHMolecular Weight: 60.05 g/molBoiling Point: 117-118°CMelting Point: 16.2°CDensity at 25°C (g/cm3): 1.049Non-Volatile Matter: Permanganate Time: min 2 hours Cas Number: 64-19-7Einecs Number: 200-580-7HS Code / Commodity Code: 3822900000UN Number: 2789
