Description
3-Hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid is a small hydroxy acid biochemical with a minimum purity of 90 %, CAS number 2068-83-9, and empirical formula C₄H₈O₃. It has a molar mass of 104,1 g/mol, which supports accurate preparation of stock solutions and calibration mixtures. is intended for laboratory use in chemical synthesis support, metabolite-related studies, and analytical method development where a defined short-chain hydroxy acid is required. Documented identity data allow straightforward cross-checking against protocols and safety files. Sourced from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the reagent complements broader biochemical and organic-building-block collections used in academic and industrial research. Applications include reference material work, pathway intermediate studies, and exploratory reactions that call for 3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid by name or CAS. The combination of purity statement, molecular formula, and molar mass aids reproducible dosing and reporting. quantity is practical for specialised assays and shared inventories, limiting waste while providing sufficient material for repeated small-scale experiments and quality-control checks.

Questions about 3-Hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid, min. 90 %, 50 mg
What is this article?
3-Hydroxy-2-methylpropionic acid, min. 90 %, 50 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
