Hexan

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United Kingdom

Hexan is a laboratory equipment used for various applications in scientific research and analysis. It is a colorless, volatile liquid hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C6H14. Hexan serves as a non-polar solvent and can be used for extraction, purification, and other laboratory procedures where a non-polar solvent is required.

All solvents were HPLC grade and were degassed and filtrated before their application, whereas all other chemicals were of analytical reagent grade. Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium (DMEM), GlutaMAX™, was purchased from Life Technologies, Paisley, UK, while antibacterial/antimycotic solution, phosphate-buffered saline, trypsin-EDTA, glucose oxidase/peroxidase and o-dianisidine, baker’s yeast α-glycosidase, p-Nitrophenyl-α-glucopyranoside sucrase, maltase, lactase, and acarbose were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich, Pool, UK, as well as the following reagents: ethanol, hexan, formic acid, and methanol. The multi-well Tecan’s Spark® plate reader was obtained from Tecan Group Ltd., Mannedorf, Switzerland.

Optic nerves were prepared as described in (Dodt et al., 2007 (link)). Briefly optic nerves were post fixed overnight at 4°C in PFA4%, then dehydrated in ethanol (50%, 80% and 95% for 20min each) Optic nerves were incubated for 1h in ethanol 100% and then 2h in Hexan (Sigma). Finally samples were transferred in benzyl benzoate/benzyl alcohol (2:1 in volume-Sigma) clearing solution.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
