RXSOL

Overview

Used as catalyst for producing polyurethanes in the food industry it is used as preservative. As an affluent name of this domain, we hold expertise in presenting high quality Potassium Acetate Anhydrous LR grade. This chemical is found in white color powder form.

Applications

In molecular biology, potassium acetate is used to precipitate dodecyl sulfate (DS) and DS-bound proteins to extract ethanol from DNA. Potassium acetate is used in mixtures applied for tissue preservation, fixation, and mummification.
Appearance: White deliquescent crystalline po

Dosage and directions

Potassium Acetate Injection is used as a source of potassium, for addition to large volume intravenous fluids, to prevent or correct hypokalemia (low potassium) in patients with restricted or no oral intake of potassium.

Characteristics and notes

Potassium Acetate Solution has a buffering range from pH 3.8 - 5.8. It is used in the purification and precipitation of nucleic acids. The Buffer is also used to precipitate dodecyl sulfate (DS) and DS-bound proteins allowing the removal of proteins from DNA.

Safety and SDS

Read the safety data sheet before handling. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection.
