Solvents in the lab: why acetic acid water is sometimes used
Not every peptide dissolves equally well in bacteriostatic water. Sometimes a mildly acidic solution helps.
Solubility varies per peptide
Some peptides dissolve well in bacteriostatic water, others need a mildly acidic environment. Dilute acetic acid water can then help to bring the powder fully into solution.
Which solvent when
Which liquid is suitable depends on the specific peptide and the research setup. In our Essentials you will find both bacteriostatic water and acetic acid water. All strictly for research use.
