Labbox 2-Propanol HPLC GGR
This solvent was specially designed for demanding analyses and process-critical applications. It impresses with its consistently high purity and reliable performance. Unlike other commercially available solvents, it also supports sensitive detection methods thanks to its low interference signal. Anyone who values reproducible results, efficiency and safe handling will find this an excellent option for a wide range of laboratory requirements.
Precise properties for a wide range of laboratory applications
The high-purity isopropanol proves to be an indispensable companion in chromatographic analyses, especially in HPLC methods. Due to its low inherent fluorescence and pronounced purity, it is suitable for many detection systems and ensures that measurements are as free as possible from background signals. It is also ideal for the pre-treatment of sensitive samples, as there are hardly any interfering accompanying substances. The rapid evaporation also supports the cleaning of glass and metal surfaces by quickly removing residues and leaving hardly any moisture behind. Whether for sample preparation, extraction or intermediate step cleaning in research and routine laboratories, this solvent enables a wide range of work processes to be carried out efficiently and safely.
Important technical data at a glance
- Chemical formula: (CH?)?CHOH (molecular weight of 60.10)
- CAS number: 67-63-0
- UN code: 1219, dangerous goods classification Flam. Liq. 2
- Labelling: GHS02 and GHS07 (flammable and irritant)
- Trade mark: LABKEM, fulfils HPLC quality criteria
- ADR class: 3 II as well as IATA and IMDG requirements for safe transport
- Excellent for sensitive samples and high-precision analyses
In addition, precise compliance with international transport regulations contributes to safety in laboratories and industry. The flash point is important due to the classification as a highly flammable liquid, which is why proper storage and handling is required. The solvent is also ideal for highly sensitive analyses, as it only provides a minimal background signal and therefore enables reliable results without interferences.
Certifications and conformity to standards
Classification according to the CLP regulation (GHS02, GHS07, H225, H319, H336) clearly regulates how it should be handled in laboratory environments. The product is authorised for international shipping and is listed in the relevant dangerous goods lists. It therefore covers a wide range of legal requirements and can be used in a wide variety of regions without additional expense. It is also designed for laboratory use in accordance with the relevant DIN standards, which favours reliable use in tested processes.
Concrete application examples
- Preparation of samples in the pharmaceutical sector: Optimum dissolution of active ingredients for efficacy studies or residue analyses
- Extraction of organic compounds: Suitable for pesticide analyses or the isolation of aromatic substances in food analysis
- Cleaning of laboratory equipment: Removes fats, oils and other contaminants without leaving any residue
- Use in environmental analysis: For the precise analysis of contaminants on an HPLC basis
- Chromatographic separation processes in research facilities: Enables clear separation profiles and reproducible results
Due to its high volatility, the medium can evaporate quickly and almost residue-free, which means that surfaces and samples are not unnecessarily contaminated. This factor is a decisive advantage, especially in areas where cleanliness is a top priority, such as cleanroom laboratories or certain biotech applications.
FAQs
What safety measures are particularly important in the laboratory
Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation, preferably via a fume cupboard or appropriate exhaust air systems. Also wear protective gloves, goggles and a lab coat to avoid skin and eye contact. Always pay attention to proper labelling and storage regulations.
How to store this solvent optimally
Store it in tightly closed original containers in a cool, well-ventilated place. Protect it from direct heat and sunlight. Keep it away from sources of ignition and naked flames as it is highly flammable.
Is the product also suitable for spectroscopic analyses?
Yes, thanks to its high degree of purity and low inherent fluorescence, this solvent is suitable for sensitive spectral methods. Minimal interference signals are particularly advantageous in UV/Vis or fluorescence measurements.
What disposal guidelines should be observed?
Remains and contaminated solvents should be disposed of in accordance with the locally applicable hazardous substance and disposal regulations. In many cases, separate collection in special containers is necessary to ensure proper treatment and recycling or disposal.
Conclusion
This highly pure, versatile solvent simplifies numerous process steps in the laboratory thanks to its low impurities and reliable chemical properties. It offers clearly recognisable advantages in HPLC processes, the cleaning of sensitive surfaces and the extraction of organic substances. With appropriate labelling and compliance with all current standards, it enables users to carry out safe and reproducible work processes. At the same time, the high purity creates an ideal basis for precise, trouble-free analyses in research, quality assurance and industrial processes.
