Description
Glycine is an amino acid reagent supplied at min. 99 % purity for biochemistry applications. With CAS number 56-40-6 and empirical formula C₂H₅NO₂, it has a molar mass of 75,07 g/mol and a density of 1,161 g/cm³. The boiling point is given as 375,7 °C. This from manufacturer Carl ROTH is intended for biological buffer work and related life-science preparations where a high-purity glycine source is needed. It fits routine buffer formulation, sample preparation and general biochemical workflows that rely on a simple amino acid component. Clear specification of purity and physical constants supports reproducible weighing and solution making across research and teaching laboratories. The plastic packaging suits bench-scale dispensing while keeping the solid reagent accessible for repeated use. Choose this grade when biochemistry protocols call for glycine as a buffer constituent or metabolic intermediate without introducing unnecessary formulation complexity.
