Why This Product Stands Out
Unlike commercial-grade citric acid, this IP-grade variant undergoes rigorous testing to ensure minimal impurities. Its fine powder form dissolves easily, making it ideal for precise measurements in lab protocols. Researchers and educators prefer this product for its batch-to-batch consistency, which is crucial for reproducible results.
When you buy CITRIC ACID IP from eqipped, you’re not just purchasing a chemical—you’re investing in accuracy. Our partnership with Loba Chemie ensures that every batch meets the highest standards, so you can focus on your work without worrying about supply quality.
Safety and Handling
While citric acid is generally safe, proper lab practices should always be followed. Wear appropriate PPE, including gloves and goggles, when handling. Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and incompatible substances. For detailed safety information, refer to the SDS provided with your order.
Who Should Buy This?
This product is perfect for:
- Students working on chemistry or biochemistry projects
- Researchers developing pharmaceutical or food science applications
- Educators setting up lab demonstrations
- Industrial labs requiring high-purity citric acid for testing
FAQs
What is the shelf life of CITRIC ACID IP?
When stored properly in a sealed container, CITRIC ACID IP has a shelf life of 2–3 years. Always check the batch-specific expiry date on the label.
Can this be used in food or beverage applications?
While this is IP-grade citric acid, it is intended for lab use. For food-grade applications, ensure compliance with local regulatory standards.
Is this product suitable for pH adjustment in cell culture media?
Yes, CITRIC ACID IP is commonly used in buffer preparations for cell culture and biochemical assays due to its precise pH control capabilities.
How does this compare to USP-grade citric acid?
IP-grade (Indian Pharmacopoeia) and USP-grade (United States Pharmacopeia) have similar purity standards. This product meets IP specifications, making it ideal for pharmaceutical and lab use in India.
What packaging options are available?
eqipped offers CITRIC ACID IP in 500g, 1kg, and 5kg packs. Bulk orders for institutional use can be arranged upon request.
