Why This Chloroform Stands Out
Not all chloroform is created equal. This Emparta® variant is stabilized with ethanol to prevent degradation, ensuring longer shelf life and consistent performance. Its low water content and absence of impurities like acids or aldehydes make it perfect for sensitive applications like DNA extraction or spectroscopic analysis.
For educators, this means fewer variables in student experiments. For researchers, it translates to reproducible results that hold up under peer review. The amber glass bottle protects the solvent from light-induced decomposition, preserving its integrity until the last drop.
Safety and Handling
While chloroform is indispensable in labs, it requires careful handling. Always use in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood. Wear appropriate PPE, including nitrile gloves and safety goggles. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances like strong oxidizing agents.

Applications in Your Lab
This versatile solvent finds use across multiple disciplines:
- Organic synthesis as a reaction medium
- Chromatography (TLC, HPLC) for separation
- Spectroscopy sample preparation
- Protein and nucleic acid extraction
- Pharmaceutical testing and formulation
Its high evaporation rate also makes it useful for cleaning lab glassware, though always follow proper disposal protocols for halogenated waste.
Comparing Grades: Why Emparta®?
Unlike technical or industrial-grade chloroform, Emparta® is specifically designed for analysis. Here’s what you gain:
- Lower impurity levels (≤0.05% water, ≤0.005% acids)
- Batch-specific certificates of analysis
- Consistent boiling point (60–62°C)
- Compatibility with sensitive detectors in analytical instruments
For labs where every decimal point counts, this is the chloroform that won’t let you down.
Storage and Shelf Life
To maintain its purity, store the bottle tightly sealed at 15–25°C. Under these conditions, it remains stable for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture. Always check the label for the exact expiry date and recertify if stored beyond this period.

FAQs
What is the difference between analytical grade and reagent grade chloroform?
Analytical grade chloroform, like this Emparta® variant, has stricter purity standards and is certified for use in quantitative analysis. Reagent grade is suitable for general lab use but may contain higher impurity levels that could interfere with sensitive tests.
Can I use this chloroform for DNA extraction?
Yes, this high-purity chloroform is ideal for nucleic acid extraction protocols. Its low water content and absence of nucleases ensure intact DNA/RNA recovery without degradation.
How should I dispose of unused chloroform?
Chloroform is a halogenated solvent and must be disposed of as hazardous waste. Collect in a designated container and contact your institution’s environmental health and safety office for proper disposal procedures.
Is this chloroform stabilized with amylene or ethanol?
This Emparta® chloroform is stabilized with ethanol (0.5–1.0%) to prevent the formation of phosgene, a toxic byproduct. The stabilization is clearly indicated on the label and certificate of analysis.
What’s the typical delivery time for this product in India?
eqipped ensures fast dispatch, with most orders delivered within 3–5 business days across major cities. Remote areas may take slightly longer, but you’ll receive a tracking link to monitor your shipment.
