Its stability under standard lab conditions ensures long shelf life, provided it is stored correctly. Always handle with care, as it is a hazardous chemical requiring proper safety protocols.
FAQs
What is Phenyl Isothiocyanate (PITC) used for?
PITC is primarily used in protein sequencing (Edman degradation), peptide synthesis, and biochemical research. It reacts with amino acids to form stable derivatives for analysis.
Is PITC safe to handle without a fume hood?
No, PITC should always be handled in a fume hood or well-ventilated area due to its toxic and corrosive nature. Proper PPE is mandatory.
What is the shelf life of PITC?
When stored correctly (cool, dry, and sealed), PITC has a shelf life of 12–24 months. Check the expiry date on the label.
Can I use PITC for non-research purposes?
PITC is a lab-grade chemical intended for research and industrial use only. It is not suitable for household or non-professional applications.
