Description
Orotic acid monohydrate is supplied at a minimum purity of 99 % for chemical and biochemical laboratory use. It is identified by CAS number 50887-69-9 and EG number 200-619-8, with the empirical formula C₅H₄N₂O₄·H₂O and a molar mass of 174,11 g/mol. The monohydrate form provides a defined solid suitable for weighing, solution preparation and reference applications in pyrimidine-related research and general organic chemistry. Laboratories use orotic acid derivatives in metabolic studies, nucleotide pathway investigations and as building blocks in fine-chemical work where a high-purity monohydrate is preferred. The product is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH with clear CAS, formula and molar-mass data to support accurate documentation and inventory control. Consistent labelling and a convenient pack size help maintain reproducible preparation of stock solutions and standards across research and teaching environments.

Questions about Orotic acid monohydrate, min. 99 %, 10 g, plastic
What is this article?
Orotic acid monohydrate, min. 99 %, 10 g, plastic 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.
