Questions

1–10 of 16 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.

  4. What type of packaging for different packages?

    1 answer
    1. This product is packaged in amber glass bottles with polypropylene caps with HDPE liners. The bottle sizes are as follows:
      252549-25 ML in 50 ml bottles
      252549-100 ML in 100 ml bottles
      252549-500ML in 500 ml bottles
      252549-1L in 1L bottles
      252549- 4L in 4L bottles

  5. Can formaldehyde solution 37% be diluted to 10% formalin for fixing cells for staining? Do you dilute it with around 2.7 part water? Thank you!

    1 answer
    1. How much water should be added to 100mL of a 37% solution to reduce its strength to a 10% solution?
      Use C1 x V1= C2 x V2
      37% x 100ml = 10% x V2
      Therefore V2 = (37% x 100ml) / 10%
      = 370 mL

      Subtract the total original volume from the new volume.
      370 mL - 100 mL = 270 mL
      So to reduce 100mL of 37% to 10% solution, add 270 mL of water to 100 mL of Formaldehyde solution - 252549-25ML.

  6. Which formaldehyde solution is recommended for use with the HT102A Reticulum kit?

    1 answer
    1. When a silver stain procedure recommends a 10% formalin solution, it is referring to a 10% aqueous formalin solution, which is prepared by diluting 1 part of 37% to 40% formaldehyde with 9 parts deionized water. For histology, it is advisable to use ACS reagents when the product meets ACS Specifications. Suitable products for this purpose would be product numbers 252549 or FX0410. If a 37% to 40% formaldehyde solution is available, it should work; however, it's important to avoid using old bottles of this solution that have been in the lab for several years, as impurities can form over time. Solutions used in histological procedures should typically be replaced every 2 years to ensure effectiveness.

  7. Is the methanol content in the CoA expressed as volume percent or weight percent?

    1 answer
    1. The methanol content is expressed as weight percent.

  8. What is the Department of Transportation shipping information for this product?

    1 answer
    1. Transportation information can be found in Section 14 of the product's (M)SDS.To access the shipping information for this material, use the link on the product detail page for the product.

      Helpful?

  9. Is the concentration of Product No. 252549, Formaldehyde solution, expressed as a weight percent solution?

    1 answer
    1. Yes, 37% is a reference to weight percent solution.  Unless otherwise noted, this is the standard practice for reporting concentration by percent. In terms of volume percent, this solution would be approximately 40% by volume.

      Helpful?

  10. What is the difference between formaldehyde and paraformaldehyde?

    1 answer
    1. Paraformaldehyde is the polymeric form of formaldehyde. Paraformaldehyde is a solid, and formaldehyde is a gas. Formaldehyde solutions consist of formaldehyde gas dissolved in a solvent of some kind.
