General description

Aceticacid 100% is a high-purity chemical reagent used for high-performance liquidchromatography (HPLC) applications. It is used as a mobile phase modifier orsolvent additive to adjust the pH and enhance the separation of analytes.
We are committed to providing greener alternatives that adhere to the 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This acetic acid is bio-renewable and produced from sustainably sourced beechwood, minimizing waste and promoting resource efficiency. Thus it aligns with ′Waste Prevention′, and ′Use of Renewable Feedstocks′.

Application

Acetic acid 100% can be used to adjust the pH of the sodium heptane sulfonate solution for the subsequent analysis of aciclovir and ganciclovir in human plasma by liquid chromatography–spectrofluorimetric method.

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
