Application

Ammonium acetate has been used:
  • to prepare ammonium acetate buffer
  • in the preparation of mobile phase for LC/MS analysis
  • as a supplement in establishing follicle culture

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ammonium acetate can be used in proteinaceous baits and in beer waste to increase their attraction to Ceratitis capitate. It helps in the progression of acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation when it is used as the only nitrogen source.
