What is Acetic Acid 1%? Acetic Acid 1% is a weak organic acid that is commonly found in vinegar. The 1% solution is a dilute form of acetic acid, typically used in laboratory, and industrial applications. It is a clear, colourless liquid with a distinctive, pungent odour. It is widely recognised for its versatility, as it is used in a variety of chemical reactions, as a solvent, and in pH regulation.
High-Quality Formulation: We use only carefully sourced Acetic Acid and blend it with Distilled Water, ensuring consistent performance across various applications.
Manufactured in the UK: Our Acetic Acid 1% is manufactured and bottled using non-toxic, chemical resistant bottles, providing reliable and trusted quality to our customers.
Frequent Uses
Buffer Preparation
Acetic acid is a key component of the acetate buffer system, which helps maintain a stable pH in biological and chemical experiments. A 1% solution of acetic acid is often used in creating these buffers.
Titration
A 1% acetic acid solution can serve as a weak acid in acid-base titration experiments. It allows chemists to measure the concentration of bases or neutralize strong acids when needed.
Protein and Enzyme Studies
In biochemical labs, acetic acid solutions are used to adjust the pH of solutions when working with proteins, enzymes, or other biological molecules, as their activity is often pH-sensitive.
DNA and RNA Denaturation
Acetic acid can be used to denature nucleic acids in certain laboratory protocols. The 1% solution is mild enough not to cause damage while still being effective in adjusting conditions for experiments.
Staining in Microscopy
In histology and microbiology, acetic acid can be used to prepare samples for microscopic examination. A 1% acetic acid solution is sometimes used in staining procedures to facilitate the binding of dyes to cells or tissue samples.
