General description
The product is a 30% solution of hydrogen peroxide in water. Hydrogen peroxide is more commonly being used as a green oxidizing agent. It is a better alternative to other oxidants because it has high active oxygen content and by-product is water.[1] This product is a high quality pharmacopoeia product that meets the testing specifications of USP (United States Pharmacopoeia). It can be employed in research and pilot studies.
Application
Hydrogen peroxide solution has been used:
- To prepare a sterilant solution along with peracetic acid that is employed in a novel wash process for bone allograft.[2]
- In combination with 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride (TMB) to prepare horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated gold nanoparticles (GNPs).[3]
- For the immunostaining of NeuN (a soluble nuclear protein) expressing neurons.[4]
