Application

Ammonium iron(III) sulfate dodecahydrate can be used as:
  • A catalyst to synthesize 1,4-dihydropyridines via one-pot three-component condensation reaction of dimedone, aldehydes, and 3-aminocrotonate in ethanol.
  • An additive in the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding amino compounds in the presence of alumina-supported hydrazine hydrate as a catalyst.

Efficiency was examined of microencapsulating L-ascorbic acid by polyglycerol monostearate (PGMS), and changes in the chemical and sensorial aspects of L-ascorbic acid and/or iron-fortified milk during storage were evaluated. The selected core materials were ferric ammonium sulfate and L-ascorbic acid.

The interaction of microsomes with iron and NADPH to generate active oxygen radicals was determined by assaying for low level chemiluminescence. The ability of several ferric complexes to catalyze light emission was compared to their effect on microsomal lipid peroxidation

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/449/386/product-dating-information-mk.pdf
