Formalin (Formaldehyde) Solution 37.5% - 1 Liter

Formalin 37.5% High-Concentration Fixative & Disinfectant

Formalin is a saturated aqueous solution of formaldehyde gas ($HCHO$), standardized at 37.5%. This medical-grade solution is a fundamental reagent in pathology and histology, used for the permanent fixation of biological tissues. By creating covalent cross-links between proteins, it effectively halts autolysis and prevents bacterial decay, preserving cellular morphology for microscopic examination. Beyond its use as a fixative, its potent antimicrobial properties make it an effective high-level disinfectant for specialized laboratory and industrial applications.

Key Features

  • Rapid Tissue Fixation: Quickly penetrates tissues to stabilize structures for biopsy and autopsy analysis.
  • Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial: Highly effective against bacteria, fungi, spores, and viruses.
  • Stabilized Formula: Contains methanol to prevent polymerization (paraformaldehyde precipitation) during storage.
  • Standard Laboratory Reagent: Can be diluted to 10% Neutral Buffered Formalin for routine clinical histology.

Specifications

  • Active Ingredient: 37.5% Formaldehyde ($HCHO$).
  • Volume: 1 Liter.
  • Safety: Classified as a carcinogen; use only in well-ventilated areas with full PPE.
