Glutaraldehyde 3 %
A 3% solution of glutaraldehyde is a widely used chemical compound in research and medicine, especially in histology and cytology. It is an effective fixative used to preserve biological tissue specimens.
Glutaraldehyde forms cross-links between proteins, stabilizing the structure of cells and tissues, allowing them to survive the process of preparation and staining without degradation or structural changes.
In electron microscopy, glutaraldehyde is valued for its ability to preserve and visualize fine cellular details. It is also widely used in immunohistochemistry and in vitro fixation of cells and tissues.
A 3% solution of glutaraldehyde provides effective and reliable fixation while exhibiting lower toxicity than higher concentration solutions. This makes it a safe and versatile option for many laboratory applications.
