VWR® Periodic Acid ≥99.5% (AnalaR NORMAPUR® grade) is a high-purity oxidizing reagent widely used in analytical chemistry, organic synthesis, and biochemical research. Supplied as orthoperiodic acid (H₅IO₆), this reagent provides excellent oxidative properties for selective cleavage and oxidation reactions.
The AnalaR NORMAPUR® grade ensures stringent quality control and high analytical purity, making the product suitable for demanding laboratory applications including carbohydrate analysis, histological staining methods, and advanced chemical synthesis. The reagent is supplied in secure plastic bottles designed for safe storage and handling in laboratory environments.
Due to its strong oxidizing nature and corrosive properties, periodic acid must be handled with appropriate safety precautions and personal protective equipment.
