FAQs

1. What is the solubility of HABA 98% AR in common lab solvents?

HABA 98% AR is soluble in organic solvents like DMSO and ethanol, with limited solubility in water. Always verify compatibility with your specific protocol.

2. Can this reagent be used for non-biochemical applications?

While primarily used in biochemical assays, HABA 98% AR may also function in dye-based applications due to its azobenzene structure. Test suitability for your intended use.

3. How should HABA 98% AR be stored to maintain stability?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light and moisture. Use airtight containers to prevent degradation from environmental exposure.

4. Are there lower-purity alternatives to HABA 98% AR available?

Lower-grade HABA (e.g., 95% purity) exists but may introduce variability in sensitive assays. AR grade is recommended for consistent, high-accuracy results.

5. Is this product compatible with automated liquid handling systems?

Yes, the powdered form can be reconstituted for use in automated systems, but ensure proper dissolution and filtration to avoid clogging.
