Potassium Metabisulfite 10 %
Potassium metabisulfite 10% is a single solution mainly used in histology, as an in vitro diagnostic agent and in scientific laboratories. It is an aqueous solution of potassium disulfite (CAS No.: 16731-55-8). Potassium disulfite, also known as potassium metabisulfite, is represented by the chemical formula K2S2O5 and the IUPAC designation dipotassium disulfites.
This chemical reacts in aqueous solution as an antioxidant, releasing sulfites (SO3^2-) capable of suppressing oxidation reactions. Its chemical properties make the solution useful in various scientific and diagnostic applications, such as histology, where it is used to decolorize tissue samples. In other applications, such as in vitro diagnostics, the product can be used to prevent oxidative changes by inhibiting the oxidation of biomolecules such as proteins.
Various results can be obtained from the application of potassium metabisulfite 10% solution, depending on the scientific or diagnostic context in which it is used. Preservation of native structures, prevention of staining artifacts or preservation of biological samples are some examples of the possible results.
The essential use of the product is its antioxidant effect in various scientific and diagnostic applications.
