PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Potassium Sodium Tartrate, Tetrahydrate
Application Notes
Potassium sodium tartrate tetrahydrate has been used in organic synthesis to break up emulsions in aqueous workups. The compound is an ingredient of FehlingÂ’s solution and Biuret reagent and is used in detection of aldose and ketose functional group and measuring of protein concentrations. Potassium sodium tartrate tetrahydrate is a component in the technique to produce micrometer sized aerosol particles. The compound has been used as a precipitant in the crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of strictosidine synthase.
