Thermo Scientific Pierce Acetonitrile (ACN) is an LC/MS-grade preparation with high purity and low UV-absorptivity that makes it suitable for HPLC and mass spectrometry applications.
Thermo Scientific Pierce LC/MS Grade Acetonitrile is specially purified by a proprietary method and tested to ensure lot-to-lot consistency with a low UV absorbance to provide you with the most sensitive detection across all wavelengths. Pierce Acetonitrile is 0.2-micron filtered, packaged in solvent-rinsed amber glass bottles and sealed under a nitrogen atmosphere with PTFE-lined fluorocarbon caps for ultimate protection.
Highlights:
- 37 quality tests ensure low, stable baselines and lot-to-lot consistency
- Low UV absorbance yields low baselines and high detection sensitivity
- Low impurities protects columns and simplifies analysis by eliminating extraneous peaks
