Decalcifying solution (formic acid, alcoholic)
Decalcification solution (formic acid, alcoholic) is a ready-to-use solution used in medical diagnostics, histology and scientific laboratories. It consists of ethanol (CAS No.: 64-17-5), formic acid (CAS No.: 64-18-6) and hydrochloric acid (CAS No.: 7647-01-0).
The solution is particularly suitable for decalcification of tissue specimens in histology and cytology and for decalcification in materialography. The chemical components are ethanol (C2H5OH), formic acid (CH2O2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). Formic acid and hydrochloric acid have a strong acid action that effectively dissolves calcium and other calcium compounds in tissue, while ethanol serves as a solvent and preservative.
The chemical reactions and properties of the solution are based on the proton donor activity of the contained acids, which enables the dissolution of calcium compounds in filigree tissue. By using this solution, tissue samples can be thoroughly examined and possible changes or diseases can be identified.
Possible results from the use of this product are effective and gentle decalcification of tissue samples, which allows accurate diagnosis of histological or cytological changes. In summary, the decalcification solution (formic acid, alcoholic) plays an important role in the study and diagnosis of calcification in tissue material.
