Acetic Acid 0.6% (Research Grade)

Dilute Acetic Acid Solution for Laboratory Use
Tagline: Buffering & pH Control Research Solution

Product Description

Acetic Acid (CH₃COOH) is a simple organic acid widely used in chemical, biochemical, and microbiological research. This 0.6% aqueous solution provides a stable and controlled concentration for buffering, titration, solubility testing, peptide reconstitution, and pH adjustment studies.

It is ideal for research protocols requiring mildly acidic environments, including protein unfolding studies, peptide stabilization, and biological specimen preparation.

For Laboratory and Scientific Research Use Only. Not for Human Consumption.

Why Researchers Choose Acetic Acid 0.6%

Precisely Diluted: Consistent 0.6% concentration ensures reproducible results.
Versatile Laboratory Utility: Suitable for pH control, reconstitution, and solubility testing.
Buffering Capacity: Maintains weakly acidic conditions ideal for biochemical reactions.
Analytical-Grade Quality: Prepared from high-purity reagents and deionized water.
Ready-to-Use Solution: Eliminates the need for manual dilution and minimizes error.

Important Note

For laboratory and scientific research use only. Not for human consumption, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.

Research Applications

Peptide & Protein Reconstitution

Dilute acetic acid is commonly used to reconstitute lyophilized peptides and proteins, maintaining stability and preventing aggregation in acidic conditions [Harris 2001].

pH Control & Buffering Studies

As a weak acid, acetic acid provides consistent pH control in biological and chemical experiments, particularly those requiring a slightly acidic environment [Nelson & Cox 2017].

Microbial Culture & Preservation

0.6% acetic acid solutions are used in microbiological testing and surface sterilization protocols due to their mild antimicrobial properties [Dibner & Buttin 2002].

Analytical Chemistry & Solubility Research

Used to adjust solubility in organic compounds, enhance chromatographic separations, and maintain reproducible reaction conditions [Kuehl 2000].

Mechanism of Action (How Acetic Acid Works)

Proton Donor: Releases H⁺ ions in aqueous solutions, establishing acidic pH conditions [Nelson & Cox 2017].
Weak Acid Buffering: Partially dissociates in water, allowing stable pH regulation in low-strength systems [Kuehl 2000].
Protein Stabilization: Alters surface charge and folding to maintain peptide solubility during reconstitution [Harris 2001].
Antimicrobial Activity: Disrupts bacterial membrane potential and inhibits metabolic enzymes [Dibner & Buttin 2002].
Reaction Control: Provides consistent acidity in titration and chromatographic studies.
