Potassium Chloride Reagent (KCl)
Features
- Prepared from analytical grade reagent
- Convenient sealed pouches
- Dissolve and use in minutes
- Reproducibility from lot to lot
Product description
Potassium chloride, KCl, is generally used in laboratory routines. Its use as a storage buffer for pH electrodes and as a reference solution for conductivity measurements is well established.
Medicago’s KCl supplied as an exactly pre-weighed powder in sealed pouches, giving 1000 ml of 1 M or 3 M potassium chloride when dissolved in deionized water.
Applications
- Multi-purpose routine laboratory reagent
- Storage buffer for pH electrodes
- Reference solution for conductivity
Directions for use
Empty one pouch of the KCl reagent in a laboratory flask or beaker placed on a magnetic stirrer. Add 300 ml of deionized water and stir the solution for a few minutes. Adjust the volume up to 1000 ml, stir until full dissolution and the solution is ready to use.
Shipping and storage
The KCl reagent is shipped at room temperature. Store the pouches in a dry place at room temperature. Shelf life is three years after production date.
