Sodium Azide 2 %
Sodium azide 2% is an aqueous solution used in a variety of scientific applications, especially in microbiology, biochemistry and immunology. Its main function is to inhibit bacterial growth, making it often used as a preservative in laboratory reagents and samples.
The solution is characterized by its effectiveness against a wide range of microorganisms, making it particularly suitable for applications where contamination must be prevented. It is capable of inhibiting enzyme activities and is therefore often used to preserve biological samples and solutions.
Chemically, sodium azide is an inorganic compound characterized by the azide ion. This ion can undergo various reactions, including redox reactions, resulting in the inactivation of enzymes and other biological molecules.
In medical diagnostics and life sciences, sodium azide 2% is often used as a component of buffer systems and as a preservative for biological samples. It prevents microbial contamination and maintains the stability of proteins and other biological molecules, which is essential for accurate and reliable results. In immunology, for example, it is an important component of buffer systems for ELISA tests and other immunological assays.
