Description
Buffer AW is a wash buffer supplied as a 1000 mL bottle for biochromatography reagent workflows. The preparation is a 2-propanol-containing solution and is classified for transport as a flammable liquid, n.o.s. (UN 1993, Class 3, packing group III), so it must be handled with standard precautions for organic solvent laboratory reagents. In purification sequences it is used for defined wash steps after binding and before elution, helping remove unbound material under controlled solvent conditions. Offered by manufacturer Macherey-Nagel, this bulk 1000 mL format suits laboratories that run repeated wash cycles and prefer fewer bottle changes. Net weight is 1,25 kg per unit. GHS labelling includes flammable and acute-hazard pictograms with the signal word Attention; relevant hazard statements cover flammability, harmful if swallowed, skin and eye irritation, and possible drowsiness or dizziness. Keep containers closed, away from ignition sources, and follow the full precautionary statements during routine bench use. The bottle volume and packaging support medium-throughput biochromatography work where a standardised AW wash buffer is specified by the method.
This article is part of Sorbents, silica gel & ion exchangers, in SPE & sample preparation.

Questions about Buffer AW (1000 mL)
What is this article?
Buffer AW (1000 mL) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in Sorbents, silica gel & ion exchangers, inside SPE & sample preparation, in Chromatography equipment.
Loose sorbent, silica gel and ion-exchange resin are the phases bought in bulk to pack a column or to stir into a solution. Particle size and activity, or the ion-exchange capacity, are the specification. A TLC silica and a flash silica of different particle sizes are not the same separation.
Solid-phase extraction holds a compound on a sorbent while the rest of the sample is washed away, then releases it in a small volume. The sorbent, the bed mass and the solvents are the method. Silica, ion exchangers and polymer phases do different jobs. A flash column is the same idea scaled toward purification rather than trace cleanup. The molecules are on PubChem, named by IUPAC.
Which category should I open next?
The category is SPE & sample preparation. The sub-category is Sorbents, silica gel & ion exchangers. The catalogue is Chromatography equipment.
Shelves beside this one are SPE cartridges & columns and Flash, empty & glass chromatography columns.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
