Acetic Acid
Acetic acid (CH3COOH, CAS 64-19-7) is a weak organic acid. A key component of metabolism with applications as a hydrophilic protic solvent, reagent, antibacterial agent, and manufacturing component; can be diluted into vinegar or concentrated into glacial acetic acid.
Also known as ethanoic acid or methane carboxylic acid, acetic acid is a colorless liquid organic compound with a pungent smell and a distinctively sour taste. Acetic acid may be produced industrially from methanol or by bacterial fermentation.
In the laboratory, acetic acid is used as a chemical solvent or reagent, and its antibacterial properties are used to prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria.
Acetic acid has multiple commercial uses, including:
- As a solvent
- In the production of cellulose acetate and polyvinyl acetate
- For making acetate, acetic acid ethylene, acetic anhydride, and halogenated acetic acid
- As a component for manufacturing inks and dyes, synthetic fibers and textiles, pesticides, and wood glues
Corrosive in its concentrated form, workers should use proper personal protective equipment to prevent ingestion, inhalation, and contact with eyes and skin; suitable respiratory equipment may also be appropriate. Keep acetic acid away from heat sources and oxidizing agents, reducing agents, acids, and alkalis. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area.

Acetic acid is an organic acid mainly used as a preservative acidulating and flavoring agent. It is the main constituent of vinegar and pyroligneous acid. In combination with leavening agents it produces carbon dioxide from sodium bicarbonate. Acetic acid is used as flavoring agent in ice-creams nonalcoholic beverages and baked goods.

Alkali Scientific Acetic Acid, Glacial, 500 Milliliters
Acetic Acid, Glacial, 500mL is a concentrated laboratory reagent used primarily in chemical synthesis, pH adjustment, and buffer preparation. The glacial form of acetic acid is highly acidic, making it an ideal reagent for use in analytical chemistry and biological assays that require a low pH environment. It is also frequently used as a solvent and acidifying agent in various reactions, including esterification and acylation. The 500mL size is well-suited for small-scale laboratory procedures, offering precision and convenience while maintaining the purity and potency of glacial acetic acid in controlled experimental settings.

Bioworld Acetate Buffer, 1M, pH 5.0, 500 mL
Product DescriptionAcetate buffer has a pH value of 5.0 and is made from a mixture of acetic acid (weak acid) and acetate ions (conjugated base). It is routinely used in DNA and RNA precipitation, and in the preparation of gel stains for protein gel electrophoresis. Experiments have shown that when added to food waste composting systems, sodium acetate may be effective at counteracting the adverse effects of organic acids produced in the composting process.It has a pKa value of 4.76 and a melting point of 323-329°C.For laboratory use only. Not fit for agricultural, household, clinical use or human consumption.
