Product Description
When precision matters in your lab, the right standards make all the difference. This gallium standard solution from Specpure® delivers unmatched accuracy for atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), ensuring your analytical results are reliable every time. Whether you’re calibrating instruments, validating methods, or conducting trace metal analysis, this 1000µg/ml solution provides the consistency researchers and educators trust.
Gallium is a critical element in semiconductor research, environmental testing, and materials science. With its ultra-high purity Specpure® grade, this solution minimizes interference, giving you cleaner data and fewer recalibrations. Available in convenient 100ml and 500ml packs, it’s designed to fit seamlessly into both small-scale academic labs and high-throughput research facilities.
At eqipped, we understand that lab supplies aren’t just products—they’re tools that drive discovery. That’s why we source solutions like this from trusted brands such as Thermofisher, ensuring you get the quality your work demands. Need a gallium AAS standard that won’t let you down?

Why This Gallium Standard Stands Out
Not all standard solutions are created equal. Here’s what sets this Specpure® gallium solution apart:
First, the purity. Specpure® standards are rigorously tested to eliminate contaminants, so you’re measuring gallium—not background noise. This is especially crucial in AAS, where even minor impurities can skew results. Second, the concentration. At 1000µg/ml, it’s optimized for easy dilution, letting you prepare working standards without complex calculations.
And let’s talk stability. Stored properly, this solution maintains its integrity over time, reducing waste and saving you money. No more frequent replacements or questionable readings. For students, this means fewer experiment repeats. For researchers, it means data you can publish with confidence.
Applications in Real-World Labs
Where is this gallium standard solution used? The possibilities are broad:
In environmental labs, it helps detect gallium in soil or water samples, critical for assessing industrial contamination. Semiconductor researchers rely on it to analyze gallium arsenide and other compound materials. Even in forensic science, trace gallium analysis can provide key evidence.
Educators will appreciate its role in teaching analytical chemistry. With a stable, high-purity standard, students learn proper calibration techniques without the frustration of inconsistent results. It’s a small bottle that makes a big impact on learning outcomes.
Handling and Safety
While gallium is relatively low in toxicity, proper lab practices are always essential. Store this solution in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use appropriate PPE, such as gloves and goggles, when handling. For disposal, follow your institution’s chemical waste protocols—never pour unused solution down the drain.
Risk Note: This product contains gallium in a nitric acid matrix. Avoid skin contact and inhalation. In case of spillage, neutralize with a suitable base and clean thoroughly.
Choosing the Right Pack Size
With options for 100ml and 500ml, selecting the right volume depends on your usage. Smaller labs or occasional users will find the 100ml bottle sufficient for routine calibrations. High-volume facilities, however, benefit from the 500ml size, reducing the frequency of reorders and ensuring you’re always stocked.

FAQs
What is the shelf life of this gallium standard solution?
The solution remains stable for at least 12 months when stored unopened at room temperature. Once opened, use within 6 months for best accuracy.
Can this be used for ICP-OES as well as AAS?
While optimized for AAS, this high-purity standard is also suitable for ICP-OES calibration. However, matrix effects should be considered for ICP applications.
Is this solution traceable to NIST standards?
Yes, Specpure® standards are manufactured with traceability to NIST reference materials, ensuring metrological reliability.
What is the matrix of this gallium solution?
The solution is prepared in a dilute nitric acid matrix (typically 2-5% HNO₃), which enhances stability and compatibility with most AAS instruments.
