Glutaraldehyde 6.25 %, in SOERENSEN’s Buffer pH 7.4
Glutaraldehyde 6.25 % in SÖRENSEN Buffer pH 7.4 is an important solution in medical and scientific laboratories. It is widely used in histology to fix tissue specimens because glutaraldehyde is a strong fixative that cross-links proteins by forming covalent bonds. In medical diagnostics, it can be used to sterilize medical instruments.
Chemically, the solution consists of glutaraldehyde, an aldehyde with the formula C5H8O2, and SÖRENSEN buffer, a phosphate buffer that keeps the pH stable. Glutaraldehyde is highly soluble in water and reacts with amino groups in proteins to form stable crosslinks.
Application of the glutaraldehyde solution in SÖRENSEN buffer can result in stable and well-preserved tissue specimens that allow for accurate histological examination.
The molarity of the solution is approximately 0.000156 M and the osmolarity is approximately 0.000312 Osm/L.
