Frequently asked questions
Is this water suitable for sensitive lab tasks?
Yes, this is Type 1 Reagent Grade water, meeting strict NCCLS standards. It is specifically formulated for high-precision applications like flame photometry, electrode maintenance, and critical instrument cleaning.
How is this water kept free of bacteria?
The water undergoes an ozonation process during manufacturing. This technique is highly effective at destroying bacteria and preventing microbial growth, resulting in a microbial content of less than 1 CFU/L.
Can I use this for clinical injections or IVs?
No. This product is strictly for laboratory use only. It is not intended for human or animal infusion, injection, or irrigation.
Do I need special storage for these bottles?
No complex storage is required. Simply keep the bottles at room temperature in a clean environment to maintain the integrity and shelf life of the reagent.
Is this effective for cleaning sensitive instruments?
Yes, it is highly recommended for the rigorous cleaning of laboratory instruments. The water is passed through a 0.22 μm filter to remove particulates and ensure it is suitable for your most delicate gear.
Does it meet specific resistivity standards?
Yes, it offers a resistivity of > 10 MΩ, ensuring the high level of ionic purity required for demanding analytical laboratory procedures.
What is the pH level of this water?
The pH level is maintained between 5.5 and 7.5 at 25°C, ensuring stability for sensitive reagents and diagnostic equipment.
Is this product considered industrial or professional grade?
This is a professional-grade reagent manufactured by Thermo Scientific. It is engineered specifically for clinical, research, and diagnostic laboratory settings where quality consistency is critical.
Are there any silicate purity concerns?
The water is processed to maintain a very low silicate level of < 0.05 mg/L, ensuring it remains free of contaminants that could interfere with sensitive testing.
What is the total volume included in a case?
Each case contains 12 bottles, with each bottle holding 16 oz of deionized water.
