Description
Gelatine, crystal, extra pure, 160 Bloom is a refined protein hydrocolloid intended for laboratory and preparative use. Identified by CAS number 9000-70-8 and EG nr. 232-554-6, this crystalline grade is characterised by a Bloom value of 160, indicating gel strength suitable for media preparation, coating work and biochemical formulations where consistent gelling behaviour is important. The product is Extra-pure crystal gelatine dissolves under controlled heating to form clear gels and viscous solutions used in culture media, encapsulation trials, photographic and analytical applications, and as a matrix or binder in experimental protocols. Material from manufacturer Carl ROTH is specified as extra pure with a defined 160 Bloom rating, helping laboratories standardise recipes and compare batches. The crystalline form supports accurate weighing and straightforward dissolution. This gelatine grade is a reliable choice when a well-characterised, high-purity protein gelling agent is required for scientific and technical workflows.
