99+% Glycerol, Ultrapure, Biopure Grade is a high-purity reagent designed for molecular biology and biochemistry applications. Supplied as a clear, viscous liquid, it is filtered to biopure standards to minimize contaminants. Glycerol is commonly used as a cryoprotectant for cell and enzyme storage, a stabilizer in protein and nucleic acid preparations, and as a density reagent in electrophoresis loading buffers. The ultrapure grade ensures consistent performance in sensitive assays and long-term sample preservation.
