Product Description
Sodium hydroxide pellets are a staple in molecular biology labs, and this 98.0% pure grade from CDH ensures reliability for critical applications. Whether you’re working on nucleic acid extraction, protein denaturation, or precise pH adjustments, these pellets dissolve quickly and consistently, providing the strong alkaline solution your experiments demand.
Unlike industrial-grade NaOH, this molecular biology-grade variant undergoes rigorous purification to eliminate contaminants like heavy metals and nucleases, making it safe for sensitive biological workflows. Researchers and students alike trust this product for its batch-to-batch consistency, which is essential for reproducible results.
At eqipped, we understand the importance of quality reagents in scientific work. That’s why we source these pellets directly from CDH, a brand synonymous with purity and performance in Indian labs. The 500g pack size strikes a balance between convenience and cost-effectiveness, reducing the need for frequent reorders while maintaining freshness.
For labs focused on genomics, proteomics, or general biochemistry, having a dependable sodium hydroxide source is non-negotiable. These pellets are particularly valued in protocols requiring high concentrations, such as plasmid DNA isolation or cell lysis buffers. Their pellet form also allows for precise weighing, minimizing waste compared to liquid alternatives.

FAQs
What’s the difference between molecular biology grade and reagent grade sodium hydroxide?
Molecular biology grade undergoes additional purification to remove nucleases, heavy metals, and other contaminants that could interfere with biological samples. Reagent grade is suitable for general lab use but may contain trace impurities.
How should I store these sodium hydroxide pellets?
Keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place. Sodium hydroxide is hygroscopic and will absorb moisture from the air, so proper storage is essential to maintain its purity and prevent clumping.
Can I use these pellets for DNA extraction?
Absolutely. These molecular biology-grade pellets are ideal for DNA extraction protocols as they’re free from nucleases that could degrade your samples during the lysis step.
What’s the shelf life of these sodium hydroxide pellets?
When stored properly, these pellets have a shelf life of 3-5 years. However, always check for signs of moisture absorption or clumping before use in critical applications.
How do I prepare a 1M sodium hydroxide solution with these pellets?
To make 1 liter of 1M NaOH solution, dissolve 40g of these pellets in distilled water, then adjust the volume to 1L. Always add the pellets to water slowly while stirring, as the dissolution process is exothermic.
