Potassium hydrogen phosphate, dried, 98+%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

Potassium hydrogen phosphate is used as a fertilizer, food additive, buffering agent, in molecular biology, biochemistry and chromatography. It is useful to increase the partition coefficients of amino acids in aqueous two-phase systems. It plays an important role for increase in rice grain yield by spraying chemicals including ferric chloride, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate and salicylic acid.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
