High-Performance Standards for Biochemical Applications

BAME Mix offers unparalleled accuracy and reliability for microbial identification by serving as a reference standard in GC analysis. Its high purity and compatibility with all major column types ensure consistent results for researchers and technicians in biochemical laboratories.

Safe and Convenient Usage

Packaged in sealed amber glass vials, BAME Mix is protected from light, maintaining stability throughout its 12-month shelf life. Clear handling instructions and transport guidelines safeguard users, even as the product remains flammable and should be stored at 2-8C, away from sources of ignition.

FAQs of Bacterial Acid Methyl Ester (BAME) Mix:

Q: How should BAME Mix be handled in the laboratory environment?

A: Use appropriate personal protective equipment and work in a well-ventilated area. Always keep the product away from heat, open flames, or sparks, as it is flammable. After use, ensure the vial is tightly closed and kept in a cool, protected space.

Q: What is the main application of BAME Mix?

A: BAME Mix is primarily used as a reference standard for GC analysis of bacterial fatty acids. This aids in the biochemical and microbial identification essential in various scientific research fields.

Q: When should the BAME Mix be disposed of, and what is the recommended process?

A: Dispose of BAME Mix when it is no longer needed or past its 12-month shelf life. Follow local regulations for chemical disposal and ensure it is handled by trained personnel in accordance with safety guidelines for flammable liquids.

Q: Where should BAME Mix be stored to maintain its quality?

A: Store the mix in sealed amber glass vials at 2-8C, away from light and ignition sources. This preserves its stability and prevents degradation over time.

Q: What benefits does using BAME Mix provide for GC analysis?

A: BAME Mix ensures accurate and reproducible results in bacterial fatty acid profiling, thanks to its high purity and compatibility with major GC columns. This enhances the reliability of microbial identification and biochemical research.

Q: Is BAME Mix regulated for transport, and what precautions should be considered during shipment?

A: BAME Mix is not regulated under normal transport conditions, but because it is a flammable liquid, shipments should still be kept away from heat sources and packaged securely in sealed amber glass vials.
