Spectrum™ Phenol Solution, 5% (w/v) is a precisely formulated aqueous solution of phenol, with an assay specification of 4.9–5.1%, intended for laboratory reagent use. Phenol (also known as carbolic acid) is a versatile aromatic compound widely used in molecular biology, histology, and analytical chemistry for its protein denaturing, disinfectant, and preservative properties.
This pre-diluted solution offers consistent quality and convenience for protocols requiring low-concentration phenol, such as nucleic acid purification, bacterial culture decontamination, and histological processing.
Applications
- RNA and DNA extraction protocols (protein denaturation and phase separation)
- Antiseptic or preservative in reagent formulations
- Histological sample preparation and tissue processing
- Analytical chemistry for protein precipitation
- Use in environmental and microbiological laboratories
