TRI CHLORO ACETIC ACID AR
Application
Trichloroacetic acid is a monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid in which all three methyl hydrogens are substituted by chlorine. It has a role as a metabolite, a carcinogenic agent and a mouse metabolite. It is a monocarboxylic acid and an organochlorine compound. It derives from an acetic acid
- Trichloroacetic acid has been used for the precipitation of sLRP (soluble circulating low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1) isolated from plasma.
- It has been used for the extraction of ascorbic acid from plant samples. It has also been used for the preparation of ascorbate standards for ascorbate assay.
- It has been used for the precipitation of IMAC (immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography)-isolated phosphoproteins.
- Traditionally used to precipitate protein. Has been used to determine protein concentration by quantitative precipitation. Used as decalcifier and fixative in microscopy.
