General description

Piperidine can be prepared either by nickel catalyzed hydrogenation of pyridine or by cobalt catalyzed hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurylamine[1][2] It forms adducts with α,β,γ,δ-tetraphenylporphyriniron(II) and protoporphyriniron(II). Mossbauer spectra of these adducts have been evaluated.[3] It constitutes the skeleton of various alkaloids.[4] Its chemical reactivity has been discussed.[1]

Application

Piperidine may be employed as protective and structure-directing agent in the post synthesis of MCM (Mobil Composition of Matter)-49 zeolites.[5]

Here, we describe a detailed step-by-step protocol to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA using RT-PCR-mediated amplification and CRISPR/Cas-based visualization. The optimized assay uses basic molecular biology equipment such as conventional thermocyclers and transilluminators for qualitative detection. Alternatively, a fluorescence plate reader can

In the past decades, transcriptomic studies have revolutionized cancer treatment and diagnosis. However, tumor sequencing strategies typically result in loss of spatial information, critical to understand cell interactions and their functional relevance. To address this, we investigate spatial gene expression

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. 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.

  2. 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
