Methanol, ≥99.8%, anhydrous, suitable for tissue processing

Methanol is an industrial organic solvent commonly used in organic synthesis. It is being considered as a potential hydrogen source in fuel cell technology due to its high H/C ratio, low propensity for soot generation, relatively low reforming temperature and its liquid state at room temperature. The olefins (ethylene or propylene) formed from methanol via MTO (methanol-to-olefins) process, can be an alternative to oil and gas to produce hydrocarbon fuels. Application Methanol has been used for fixing the tissues during preparation of thin giemsa stained blood smears.[1] It has been used in the purification step during the synthesis of pyocyanin, a toxic compound found in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Methanol has been used in following applications: Used for the synthesis and purification of pyocyanin, spectrophotometric estimation of pyocyanin concentration, and the calculation of pyocyanin molar concentration using spectrophotometer absorption data.[2] Used as a component of staining solution used in karyotyping.[3] Used as a component of staining solution to stain cell colonies in colony formation assay.
