Description
Chlorhexidine is a bisbiguanide laboratory chemical offered at a minimum purity of 95 % for biochemical and research applications. Identified by CAS number 55-56-1 and the empirical formula C₂₂H₃₀Cl₂N₁₀, it has a molar mass of 505,45 g/mol. Physical data include a flash point of 377 °C and a boiling point of 591,7 °C, supporting informed handling and process planning in the laboratory. This variant is The material is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within its chemicals and biochemicals portfolio and carries UN number 3077 for transport classification. Clear CAS and formula identification aids inventory control, documentation, and cross-referencing against protocols and safety files. Suitable for professional laboratory environments that require a defined minimum assay without further grade claims, chlorhexidine can be integrated into established biochemical workflows where consistent identity and basic physicochemical parameters matter. Handle and store according to laboratory good practice and the product safety documentation.

Questions about Chlorhexidine, min. 95 %, 5 g
What is this article?
Chlorhexidine, min. 95 %, 5 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
