Sucrose AR
Used in buffers for low solid concentration large pore polyacrylamide gels. This results in improved handling characteristics of the gels it is also used as thickener for sample solution to prevent in homogenity due to convection it is useful in clarifying and layering of Samples. a-D-Glucopyranosyl ß-D-fructofuranoside; ß-D-Fructofuranosyl-a-D-glucopyranosid;, D(+)-Saccharose; Sugar
