| Application: | Isopropyl alcohol has been used:• in oil red O staining of the adipocytes to dissolve the stain and extract the stain from the cell • as a component of the saponification and acetylacetone reagent and to prepare triglyceride standard stock solution to extract liver triglyceride (TG) • to flush through the microfluidic device before experiments to effectively remove air bubbles from the channels |
| Features and Benefits: | We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This solvent is safe to use and thus aligns with "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries". Click here  for more information. |
| General description: | Isopropyl alcohol (IPA, 2-propanol, isopropanol) is a water soluble aliphatic alcohol with a sweet odor. It is one of the volatile flavor compound found in Tricholoma matsutake,a fungi used in Japanese dishes for its aromatic flavor. IPA is also a major flavor component in lemon essence. |
