General description

Standard bulk materials often show a tendency for caking, clumping and dust formation which results in laborious weighing and manual de-caking processes with a negative impact on manufacturing efficiency. Due to its granulated form, Sodium acetate granulated is free-flowing and easy to handle. Its greatly reduced caking behavior facilitates processability, speeds up manufacturing processes and increases operator safety.

As part of our EMPROVE® Program, our raw materials are offered with extensive documentation facilitating compliance of your pharma and biopharma product, full supply chain transparency and risk mitigation. Our SAFC® portfolio of high-quality products for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical formulation and production withstands strict quality control procedures and is produced according to applicable cGMP guidelines.

Application

Sodium acetate trihydrate is used as a buffer component for Biomolecule downstream processing steps and final formulation as well as small molecule final formulation.

Other Notes

Enzyme substrate for acetate kinase (EC 2.7.2.1)
