Product Description
Mercuric Chloride Solution 5% is a versatile laboratory reagent widely used in analytical chemistry, microbiology, and research applications. This high-purity solution from CDH (Central Drug House) ensures reliable results in qualitative tests, precipitation reactions, and as a disinfectant in controlled lab environments.
Whether you’re a student conducting experiments or a researcher validating protocols, this solution offers consistent performance. The 125 ml pack size is ideal for small-scale lab work, ensuring minimal waste while maintaining cost efficiency.
At eqipped, we prioritize quality and safety. This solution is manufactured under strict quality control to meet analytical-grade standards, making it a trusted choice for educational institutions and research labs across India.
Key Applications
This solution is commonly used in:
- Qualitative inorganic analysis for detecting halides and other anions
- Microbiological studies as a disinfectant or preservative
- Chemical synthesis and catalytic reactions
- Histology and tissue fixation protocols
For precise results, always use fresh solution and store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. The amber bottle packaging helps prevent light-induced degradation.
Why This Solution Stands Out
Unlike generic alternatives, this CDH-manufactured solution guarantees:
- Consistent 5% concentration for reproducible results
- Low impurity levels to avoid interference in sensitive tests
- Stable shelf life when stored properly
Whether you’re setting up a new lab or restocking essential reagents, this mercuric chloride solution offers the reliability researchers demand. Order your 125 ml bottle today and experience the difference quality makes in your experiments.
Safety and Handling
Due to its toxic nature, this solution requires careful handling:
- Use only in a well-ventilated fume hood
- Wear nitrile gloves and safety goggles at all times
- Never pipette by mouth; use mechanical dispensers
- Store in a locked cabinet away from food and beverages
In case of accidental exposure, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention. Refer to the SDS (Safety Data Sheet) for complete handling instructions.

FAQs
What is mercuric chloride solution used for in laboratories?
It’s primarily used for qualitative analysis (e.g., testing for halides), as a disinfectant in microbiology, and in certain chemical synthesis reactions. Its ability to form insoluble precipitates makes it valuable in analytical chemistry.
How should I store mercuric chloride solution?
Store in the original amber bottle at room temperature (15–25°C), away from light and heat sources. Keep the cap tightly closed to prevent evaporation and contamination.
Is this solution suitable for medical or clinical use?
No, this is strictly a laboratory reagent and not intended for medical, therapeutic, or diagnostic use. Always use medical-grade products for clinical applications.
What precautions should I take when disposing of this solution?
Mercuric chloride is hazardous waste. Collect in a labeled container and dispose of through authorized chemical waste handlers following local environmental regulations.
Can I buy mercuric chloride solution in smaller quantities?
This 125 ml pack is the standard size for most lab applications. For smaller quantities, you may need to prepare dilutions in-house using appropriate safety measures.
