Alkaline alcohol (with NaOH)
Alkaline alcohol (with NaOH) is an important component of laboratories, especially in histology and medical diagnostics. It consists of ethanol, distilled water and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Chemically, this mixture represents a basic alcoholic solution in which NaOH alkalinizes the medium and ethanol serves as a solvent.
The basic properties of this product are used to aid certain histological procedures, such as deparaffinization and rehydration of tissue sections. In this process, the ethanol component facilitates the penetration of the solution into the tissue and its subsequent processing.
In reactions, NaOH behaves as a strong base and can absorb protons (H+) from other compounds. This process can help reveal tissue structures that might otherwise remain hidden.
