Thermo Scientific Chemicals Sucrose, 99%

Used for protein purification in sucrose density gradient studiesSucrose is widely utilized in medications to carry a more pleasant taste to indigestible chemicals. It is used in many medical dosage forms such as chewable tablets, syrups, tablets, or glues. Sucrose is mainly used in foods nowadays. The fatty acid esters of sucrose show useful application in transdermal therapeutic systems. Sucrose-gradient centrifugation also plays an important role in the selective isolation of nocardia spp. from soil.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
