FAQs
What’s the difference between ACS reagent grade and regular isopropyl alcohol?
ACS reagent grade meets strict purity standards set by the American Chemical Society, with maximum allowable impurities clearly defined. Regular isopropyl alcohol may contain higher levels of contaminants that could interfere with analytical results.
Can I use this 2-propanol for DNA extraction?
Absolutely. The high purity of this AnalaR NORMAPUR® grade makes it excellent for molecular biology applications, including DNA/RNA precipitation and extraction protocols.
How should I dispose of unused 2-propanol?
Follow your institution’s chemical waste disposal protocols. Never pour down drains or dispose with regular trash. Most labs collect flammable solvents in designated waste containers for proper disposal.
Is this the same as rubbing alcohol?
While both contain isopropyl alcohol, this product is significantly purer. Rubbing alcohol typically contains 70% isopropyl alcohol with additives, while this reagent grade is ≥99.5% pure with no additives.
What’s the shelf life of this product?
When stored properly in its original, unopened container, this 2-propanol has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. Always check the expiration date on your specific bottle.
