Acetic Acid Reconstitution Solution

Description

Pure Rawz Acetic acid is a dilute acetic acid for peptide reconstitution. It’s sold as a laboratory supply for research use.

Acetic acid explained

This is sterile dilute acetic acid, offered at 0.5% and 0.6%, in 10mL vials. Some peptides dissolve poorly in plain water and need a slightly acidic solution.

IGF-1 LR3 and some other larger peptides are the usual reason labs keep it on hand.

How it acts in research models

Acid adds positive charge to basic amino acids, which helps the peptide chains repel each other and stay dissolved instead of sticking together.

After dissolving, many labs dilute further with bacteriostatic water or buffer.

Published Acetic acid research

Peptide suppliers and protein chemists have long used dilute acid, often 0.1% to 1% acetic acid, to dissolve basic peptides and keep them from clumping.

The low acid level is mild enough not to damage most peptides.

The primary literature is on PubMed. Here’s a search to start from.

Options and prices

There are 2 ways to buy it, from $12.99 to $13.18:

• 0.5%, 10ml: $12.99
• 0.6%, 10ml: $13.18

How labs use it

Reconstitution liquids and solvents are the part of a protocol that’s easy to overlook. The wrong liquid can stop a peptide dissolving, change its stability or interfere with an assay.

Match the liquid to the compound and to how long you’ll keep the solution. Single-use work can use sterile water, while multi-draw vials need a preservative.

Buy in the size you’ll use before the expiry date. A large bottle that sits open for months isn’t a saving.

Acetic acid specifications

• Options: 2 sizes and forms
• Use: laboratory research only

Storage and shelf life

Keep the bottle sealed in a cool, dark place. Some solvents absorb moisture from the air, so close it after each use. Note the batch number and the date you opened it in your lab records.

Our reconstitution and solvent range

Different compounds need different liquids. Here’s how our range lines up:

• Bacteriostatic Water: the default for most peptides, with 0.9% benzyl alcohol so a vial can be drawn from for several weeks
• Sterile Water: no preservative, for single-use mixing or assays where benzyl alcohol would interfere
• Acetic Acid Reconstitution Solution (this page): dilute acid for peptides that dissolve poorly in water, such as IGF-1 LR3
• Phosphate Buffered Solution: holds the pH near 7.4 for dilutions and cell work
• L-Glutathione Reconstitution Solution: adds an antioxidant for peptides prone to oxidation
• Reconstitution Solution: a general-purpose sterile diluent for the shelf
• DMSO Dimethyl Sulfoxide: a strong solvent for stock solutions of compounds that won’t dissolve in water
• Benzyl Alcohol USP Grade: preservative and co-solvent for oil-based solutions
• Grape Seed Oil 100% Filtered: a light carrier oil for fat-soluble compounds

Safe handling

Wear gloves and eye protection, work in a ventilated area, and keep flammable solvents away from heat and open flames. Close the bottle after each use.

Often ordered alongside

• DMSO Dimethyl Sulfoxide: DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide, is a clear solvent made from wood pulp byproducts.
• Phosphate Buffered Solution: Phosphate buffered solution is salt water with sodium and potassium phosphate added to hold the pH near 7.4, close to body fluid.
• Grape Seed Oil 100% Filtered: Grape seed oil is pressed from grape seeds left over from winemaking.
• Benzyl Benzoate USP Grade: Benzyl benzoate is an ester of benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid.
• Propylene Glycol: Propylene glycol is a clear, slightly sweet liquid used as a solvent and humectant.

How it compares

Cotton Seed Oil: Cotton seed oil is pressed from cotton plant seeds and refined. It’s sold here as injectable-grade research carrier oil.

Propylene Glycol: Propylene glycol is a clear, slightly sweet liquid used as a solvent and humectant. It’s USP grade.

Common questions about Acetic acid

Does it come with a certificate of analysis?

Yes. Every batch is tested, and we’ll email the certificate of analysis for your batch number on request.

Can it be used in people or animals?

No. It’s sold for laboratory research only and isn’t approved for human or veterinary use.

How should I store it?

Follow the storage section above. In short: cold and dark for freeze-dried vials, room temperature and dry for capsules, tablets, powders and liquids, unless the label says otherwise.

What forms does it come in?

It comes in 2 sizes, listed in the dropdown on this page.

Is Acetic acid in stock?

Yes. It’s in stock and ships from our warehouse after your order clears.
