Acetic Acid Water

$2.00 / 10 Vials

Acetic Acid Water 0.6% is a specialized, sterile solvent designed for the reconstitution of peptides that exhibit poor solubility in neutral pH solutions. By providing a mild acidic environment, it facilitates the complete dissolution of complex amino acid chains and helps maintain the stability of peptides that are prone to degradation in alkaline or neutral conditions. It is an essential reagent for specialized laboratory protocols involving hydrophobic or pH-sensitive proteins.

Mechanism of Action

pH Modulation: The 0.6% concentration provides a controlled acidic environment (typically pH 3.0 to 4.0), which increases the net positive charge on the peptide molecules, promoting better interaction with water molecules (α).

Prevention of Aggregation: By altering the electrostatic environment, it prevents the formation of insoluble peptide clumps (aggregates) that often occur when delicate β-sheet structures interact prematurely.

Enhanced Bioavailability: For certain growth factor analogs, an acidic starting environment ensures the molecule remains in its most bio-active monomeric form during the research phase.

Sterile Environment: Prepared using high-purity Water for Injection (WFI), ensuring no interference from heavy metals or ions that could catalyze the oxidation of sensitive residues like Methionine or Cysteine (γ).

Storage & handling

Storage:Store the lyophilized vial in a cool, dry area protected from direct sunlight.
