Stearic acid lithium salt, for biochemistry, 500 g, plastic

Stearic acid lithium salt is a lithium carboxylate salt supplied for biochemistry applications, with CAS number 68783-37-9 and empirical formula C₁₈H₃₅LiO₂. Its molar mass is 290,40 g/mol, and the substance is also identified under EG nr. 272-195-2. This material is offered in a practical 500 g plastic pack, suited to routine preparation and handling in biochemical and related laboratory workflows where a defined lithium stearate salt is required. Physical and identity data from the manufacturer support clear documentation in laboratory inventories and method records. The salt form and stated molar mass facilitate stoichiometric calculations when the reagent is incorporated into buffer systems, surface-related studies, or other biochemistry protocols that call for stearic acid lithium salt. Packaged as a 500 g unit in plastic, the product is convenient for shared laboratory stocks and repeated use without unnecessary repackaging. Stearic acid lithium salt from manufacturer Carl ROTH provides a straightforward option for laboratories that need a biochemistry-grade lithium stearate with transparent CAS, EG and formula information. The combination of defined molecular data and a robust plastic pack size supports consistent ordering and use across analytical and life-science environments.
