General description

Acetonitrile is a water-soluble polar organic solvent with exceptional solubilizing power, unique chromatographic properties, and ideal spectroscopic characteristics. [1]

Application

Acetonitrile is used as a solvent:
  • To prepare mobile phase for LC/MS analysis of bioactive components in Graviola leaf extracts. [2]
  • In Reversed-phase HPLC. [3]
  • A solvent in chemical synthesis
  • A solvent for sample preparation, including extraction, dilution, and dissolution of compounds prior to analysis.

Packaging

M-Bottle for Solvents
As a global leader in lab reagents, we are constantly looking for new ways to optimize the safety of our products. The newly developed 4L solvent bottle design features advanced sealing technology that eliminates leaks to make the handling of solvents safer and more convenient than ever before.
