Key Features and Details
Sodium Chloride
| SKU | 02194848-CF |
| Alternate Names | Salt; Dendritis; Halite; Purex; saline; sterling; table salt; top flake; Common salt; Table salt; Rock salt |
| Application Notes | Sodium chloride is used in a wide variety of biochemical applications, including intravenous fluids (normal saline is 0.9% w/v in water10), density gradients3,6, a diluent to increase ionic strength in buffers or culture media and in salt-out procedures in the isolation of DNA.8 It has also been used in high concentrations for preservation of foods since bacteria cannot grow in high salt conditions. A salt-ice mixture in the ratio of approximately 33 g sodium chloride to 100 g ice (at -1°C) will drop in temperature to as low as -21°C, depending on the rate of stirring and the size of the ice chunks. |
