Description
Hypoxanthine is a purine derivative supplied at a minimum purity of 98 % for biochemistry applications. It is defined by CAS number 68-94-0, EG number 200-697-3, and the empirical formula C₅H₄N₄O, with a molar mass of 136,11 g/mol. The 5 g glass pack provides a convenient laboratory quantity for preparing media supplements, enzymatic assays, and metabolic studies involving purine pathways. Researchers and biochemists employ hypoxanthine in cell-culture related work, nucleotide metabolism experiments, and analytical reference preparations where a clearly specified grade is required. This material from manufacturer Carl ROTH supports reproducible bench protocols with documented identity parameters for traceability in laboratory records. The stated minimum assay and molecular data aid formulation calculations and quality documentation. Packaged in glass for straightforward storage and handling in biochemical suites, the product fits academic, biotech, and industrial laboratories that routinely handle purine bases. Suitable wherever a biochemistry-grade hypoxanthine standard with verified CAS and formula information is needed for experimental and analytical use.

Questions about Hypoxanthine, min. 98 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, glass
What is this article?
Hypoxanthine, min. 98 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Biochemicals (other), inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
These are the biochemical reagents that are not an amino acid, a sugar, a lipid, an enzyme or an antibiotic. Identity and purity still decide the bottle. If the compound is light-sensitive or hygroscopic, the handling on the label is part of the specification.
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.
