Application


  • Inhibition of boric acid and sodium borate on the biological activity of microorganisms in an aerobic biofilter.: This research examines the effects of di-sodium tetraborate decahydrate on the biological activity of microorganisms in an aerobic biofilter. The study finds that di-sodium tetraborate decahydrate can inhibit microbial activity, which has significant implications for waste treatment and environmental management. This inhibition property can be utilized to control microbial populations in various industrial processes, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of biofiltration systems (Gunes, 2013).

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. We are filtering the buffer trough 0.22 micrometers filters following the preparation of 10 mM buffer at pH 8.2 by reaching the pH by adding 1.5 mL of 37% HCL. We are experiencing the formation of orange spots on the filter and the HPLC frit.

    1 answer
    1. Information regarding the effect of this product on filters is not available.

      Helpful?

  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/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  3. 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
