Store in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances.*
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes AnalaR NORMAPUR grade different from regular isopropyl alcohol?
AnalaR NORMAPUR represents the highest purity grade available for laboratory use, with impurities controlled to parts-per-million levels. This grade meets the specifications of ACS, USP, and European Pharmacopoeia, making it suitable for analytical and regulatory applications where regular isopropyl alcohol would introduce unacceptable variables.
Can this 2-propanol be used for DNA extraction protocols?
Absolutely. The high purity and low water content make this product ideal for molecular biology applications including DNA precipitation. Many research protocols specifically recommend ACS or USP grade isopropyl alcohol for consistent yields in nucleic acid isolation procedures.
Is this product suitable for HPLC mobile phase preparation?
Yes, this grade of 2-propanol is commonly used in HPLC applications. Its UV transparency and low particulate content make it appropriate for gradient elution systems. However, we recommend filtering through a 0.22 μm membrane before use for ultra-sensitive analytical work.
How does the pricing compare to other suppliers of ACS grade 2-propanol in India?
At eqipped, we offer competitive pricing on all our lab solvents while maintaining direct sourcing from reputable manufacturers like Avantor. Our bulk purchasing power allows us to pass savings to customers without compromising on quality documentation or delivery reliability.
What safety precautions should be taken when disposing of used 2-propanol?
Used 2-propanol should be collected in appropriate solvent waste containers and disposed of according to your institution’s chemical waste management protocol. Never pour down drains or mix with other waste streams. For small quantities, evaporation in a fume hood followed by proper container disposal may be acceptable under local regulations.
