Description
Lecithin with a minimum content of 97 % is a soybean-derived phospholipid preparation intended for biochemistry. It is specified as GMO-free and is identified by CAS number 8002-43-5 and EG number 232-307-2. Density is reported as less than 1 g/cm³. The material from manufacturer Carl ROTH is suited to laboratory use where lecithin acts as an emulsifier, membrane-related component or reference reagent. Its placement among laboratory chemicals makes it a practical choice for research and method work that specifies high-assay soy lecithin without genetic modification. Assay level, origin and regulatory identifiers help laboratories document reagent selection for life-science and analytical protocols that call for consistent soy lecithin.

Questions about Lecithin, min. 97 %, made from soybeans, GMO-free, for biochemistry, 100 g
What is this article?
Lecithin, min. 97 %, made from soybeans, GMO-free, for biochemistry, 100 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Lipids, steroids & fatty acids, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
A lipid, a steroid or a fatty acid is specified by chain length, saturation and purity. Esters and free acids are different compounds. Many are supplied in a small amount under inert gas because they oxidise. The physical form, oil or powder, follows from the structure.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
