Iminodiacetic acid, 98+%

Description

CAS: 142-73-4 | C4H7NO4 | 133.103 g/mol

Iminoacetic acid is used as an inhibitor of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase. It is used as a reagent in the synthesis of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgel particles for metal affinity binding of peptides. It is mainly used for modulating peptide mobility by capillary electrophoresis. It is also used in chemotherapeutic treatment for metal poisoning. It acts as a tridendate ligand and forms metal complexes.

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.
