General description

A kit of NIST traceable ethanol standards suitable for calibration of ethanol testing methods. These Certified Reference Materials are widely used in forensic analysis and clinical toxicology applications for determination of blood alcohol content.

Application


  • Ethanol 40% in Alzheimer′s Research: Ethanol 40% as a solvent, demonstrated the potential to alleviate β-amyloid toxicity in early Alzheimer′s disease models. This indicates ethanol 40% as a critical solvent in pharmaceutical research targeting neurodegenerative diseases (El Menuawy et al., 2024).

  • Biomedical Applications of Silk Sericin: Ethanol 40% is used for extraction and solubilization, reviews its structure, biochemical properties, and applications in biomedicine, emphasizing ethanol′s role as a versatile solvent in biochemical extractions (Saad et al., 2023).

  • Bioprocessing with Ethanol: Ethanol 40% is utilized in a study for enhancing enzymatic saccharification of corn stover, underscoring its importance in biotechnological processes and the production of biofuels and biochemicals (He et al., 2015).

A recently developed mechanochemical method has provided a new, efficient tool for studies on the thermal stability and structure of aggregated DNA in ethanol-water solutions. At low ethanol concentrations DNA is fully soluble and is in the B form. However

Ethanol is widely consumed and is associated with an increasing global health burden. Several reviews have addressed the effects of ethanol and its oxidative metabolite, acetaldehyde, on the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, focusing on carcinogenic effects or alcoholic liver disease. However

Although it is well established in several mammalian species that beta 3-adrenoceptors play a major role in regulating lipolysis and thermogenesis in adipose tissue, the functional existence and role of this receptor subtype in man has been controversial. We investigated

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is able to accumulate ≥17% ethanol (v/v) by fermentation in the absence of cell proliferation. The genetic basis of this unique capacity is unknown. Up to now, all research has focused on tolerance of yeast cell
Luis Caspeta et al.
Science (New York, N.Y.), 346(6205), 75-78 (2014-10-04)
Ethanol production for use as a biofuel is mainly achieved through simultaneous saccharification and fermentation by yeast. Operating at ≥40°C would be beneficial in terms of increasing efficiency of the process and reducing costs, but yeast does not grow efficiently
