Barium acetate, 99%

Description

CAS: 543-80-6 | C4H6BaO4 | 255.42 g/mol

It has acted as cationization agent for sensitive multiple reaction monitoring of plasma free fatty acid profiling in a fish oil human intervention. Barium acetate has been used in the process of titrating sulfates of quinine and quinidine in nonaqueous conditions. Electrophoresis in the presence of barium acetate has analytically and preparatively separate glycosaminoglycans. It has been documented to induce severe cardiac disrhythmia from ingestion. It also finds its application as a chemical reagent, textile mordant, catalyst for organic reactions, and paint and varnish driers.

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. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
