Caution
This product is not sterile. Mineral oil is difficult to sterilize. It can only be sterilized by careful filtration of the warmed oil. It is assumed antibiotics will be added to the cell culture medium. Otherwise, Prod. No. M5310 should be used, as it is sterile filtered.
Analysis Note
This material is tested as an overlay in microdrop embryo cultures. (All embryo tested materials are tested using mouse embryos.) Typically BCF1 x BDF1 hybrids are used. The oil is primarily used to prevent evaporation of the medium, particiularly when performing embryo manipulations.1 The procedure is as follows: 1-cell (BCF1 X BDF1) embryos were cultured in triplicate microdrops of embryo-tested HTF (Human Tubal Fluid) medium supplemented with 0.4% BSA. For a valid assay, at least 70% of 1-cell stage control embryos must develop to the blastocyst stage within 96 hours. For product release, at least 80% of 1-cell stage test embryos must develop to the blastocyst stage within 96 hours with the tested material.

Hello,I´m looking for a mineral oil for sulfur pattern production. It´s difficult to find an oil in which the content of sulfur compounds appears in the COA. Can you inform if there´s a possibility of sulfur contamination in the production of mineral oil?

ıs this suitable for preparation of carbon paste electrode?
1 answer-
This material has not been validated in the process of making carbon paste electrodes. However, if the specifications (found below) meet your requirements, then there is no reason that they can't be used in this process.

What is the composition of the oil? Where does it comes from?
1 answer-
M8410 is a light oil. Mineral oil is a complex mixture of different hydrocarbons and its typical composition is as follows:
Paraffinic oils, based on n-alkanes, 15-60%
Naphthenic oils, based on cycloalkanes, 30%-60%
Aromatic oils, based on aromatic hydrocarbons, 3-30%
Light and heavy mineral oil differ in terms of composition, viscosity, and density.
Mineral oil with an alkyl chain carbon number of 15 to 25 is categorized as light oil whereas 25 to 50 as heavy oil.
Light oil has a density of 0.83–0.86 kg L-1 whereas heavy oil has 0.875–0.905 kg L-1
Light mineral oil is less occlusive than heavy mineral oil as it contains more cyclic (saturated) moleculesAdditional Links: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/product/documents/326/294/m8410pis.pdf and a second document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/specification-sheets/990/164/M8410-BULK.pdf
