Merck, AX0116-6, Acetone

General description
Acetone is a polar, aprotic solvent widely used in chromatography as a mobile phase component or sample preparation solvent due to its high volatility, low UV absorbance, and excellent miscibility with water and organic solvents.
Application
AX0116P-1 is packaged in poly-coated glass bottles
Acetone is used in LC-MS workflows for peptide analysis, where it facilitates efficient elution and detection of peptides on reversed-phase columns, supporting high sequence coverage and reliable identification in proteomic studies.
Acetone′s luminesence intensity is dependent upon the solution components . The absorption of UV light by acetone, results in its photolysis and the production of radials .
