PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Lithium Chloride
Application Notes
Used as an electrolyte for low temperature dry battery cells and as an oxidation catalyst. It is a solubilizer for polyamides and cellulose when used with amide solvents, and is a chlorinating agent for steroid substrates. Lithium chloride has also been utilized in: Large scale plasmid DNA isolation without ultracentrifugation, protein extraction and protein crystallization, crystallization of other biological structures including vitamin B12-RNA aptamer and the L-A virus particle, Inhibits the expression and secretion of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 in H4-II-E cells, used in the synthesis of beta-substituted alpha-amino acid derivatives.
