Why This Grade Matters
Not all L-Phenylalanine is created equal. For cell culture work, purity and endotoxin levels are non-negotiable. This product undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets the highest standards. The 99% purity guarantees minimal impurities, while the endotoxin specification (≤1EU/mg) ensures compatibility with even the most sensitive cell lines.
Many researchers struggle with inconsistent results due to subpar reagents. By choosing this grade, you eliminate one variable from your experiments, allowing you to focus on your research goals. It’s a small investment that pays off in data integrity and experimental success.
Storage and Handling
Store at room temperature in a dry, well-ventilated area. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider desiccants to maintain stability. Always handle with standard lab safety practices, including gloves and eye protection.
Risk Note
This product is for laboratory use only. Avoid inhalation, ingestion, or direct contact with skin and eyes. In case of accidental exposure, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice if irritation persists. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
FAQs
