Periodic Acid, 0.5% - 500mL

Periodic Acid, 0.5% - 500mL, Buy BioTC Labware Solutions for Histology, Cytology, Microbiology, Hematology & Biology Lab from BioTC Labware.

Periodic Acid at a concentration of 0.5% is a clear, colorless solution, commonly referred to as Orthoperiodic acid. This compound is primarily utilized in the Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) staining process, serving as a precursor to the application of Schiff’s Reagent. It functions as an oxidizing agent extensively employed in histological studies. Additionally, it is a crucial ingredient in various specialized staining kits, including P.A.S., Alcian Blue-P.A.S., P.A.S.M. / Jones, as well as Grocott and Weigert-Van Gieson kits.

Application :

• The 0.5% periodic acid solution is commonly used in histology as an oxidizing agent in the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction. PAS staining is used to identify structures containing polysaccharides, glycogen, or glycoproteins.
• Periodic acid (H5IO6) is frequently used in the P.A.S. P.A.S.(Periodic Acid Schiff) method used for staining aldehydes, mucopolysaccharides and mucoproteins in purple/magenta.
• Alcian Blue dye in Alcian-P.A.S. staining method can also be used (besides Schiff’s reagent and periodic acid).

Benefits :

• Effective staining agent
• High quality product
