FAQs
What is the difference between AR and ACS grade citric acid?
AR grade meets analytical reagent standards, while ACS grade adheres to American Chemical Society specifications. Both ensure high purity, but ACS is often preferred for strict compliance requirements.
Can I use this citric acid for food applications?
This product is lab-grade and not intended for food use. For food applications, consider food-grade citric acid available separately.
How do I prepare a 0.1M citric acid buffer?
Dissolve 21.01 g of citric acid monohydrate in 1L of distilled water, then adjust pH with sodium hydroxide as needed.
Is this citric acid suitable for DNA extraction?
Yes, its chelating properties help remove metal ions that may interfere with nucleic acid isolation.
What is the shelf life of citric acid monohydrate?
When stored properly in a sealed container, it remains stable for 2–3 years. Check the batch-specific expiry date on the label.
