General description

Paraformaldehyde is a cross-linking fixative. It is changed to formaldehyde by heating and by adding small amount of sodium hydroxide.[1][2]

Application

Paraformaldehyde is recommended for use in the preparation of formalin fixatives for tissues or cells when the samples are to be used in florescence studies.
Paraformaldehyde has been used for fixing of cells and tissue sections during staining procedures.[3][4][5]

Questions

1–8 of 8 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

  3. What is the difference between formaldehyde and paraformaldehyde?

    1 answer
    1. Paraformaldehyde is the polymeric form of formaldehyde. It is a solid. Formaldehyde is a gas which when dissolved in water gives a formaldehyde solution. Commercially available formaldehyde solutions usually contain 10-15% methanol, which prevents the formaldehyde from forming the polymeric paraformaldehyde.

  4. How to prepare solutions of Product P6148, Paraformaldehyde?

    1 answer
    1. Paraformaldehyde does not dissolve but rather can be depolymerized in solution. Depolymerized solutions can be prepared in water with heating to 55-60°C. If necessary, further addition of 1-2 drops of a sodium hydroxide solution may be required. Some protocols suggest that paraformaldehyde should be prepared in buffered solutions such as phosphate buffer or PBS at approximately pH 7.
