Ammonium iron(III) sulphate 4 %
Ammonium iron (III) sulfate 4% finds its primary use in scientific laboratories and histology. Used in the so-called Feulgen reaction for DNA staining, in which deoxyribose is converted to aldehyde by acid hydrolysis and then stained with Schiff's reagent, which contains ammonium iron(III) sulfate as an important component. The chemical formula of ammonium iron (III) sulfate 12-hydrate is (NH4)Fe(SO4)2-12H2O, and it has the property of undergoing a coloration reaction with aldehydes.
In its use as an oxidizing agent, it facilitates chemical reactions. In analytical chemistry, for example, it enables the quantification of vitamin C by acting as a titration reagent. As a result of its use, it can cause various color changes depending on the context, allowing the progress of the chemical reaction or the presence of certain substances to be tracked.
