Phosphate Quantification and CSH Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4) purchased from Merck (Darmstadt, Germany) was used to prepare a phosphate stock solution (100 mg L−1). All standard solutions and synthetic water containing phosphate were prepared by diluting a phosphate stock solution with ultrapure water generated by a water purification system (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). ascorbic acid (C6H8O6, Fisher Scientific, Leicestershire, UK), ammonium heptamolybdate ((NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O, Carlo Erba, Val-de-Reuil, France), and potassium antimonyl tartrate trihydrate (C8H4K2O12Sb2·3H2O, Carlo Erba, Val-de-Reuil, France) were used for phosphate quantification using the standard ascorbic acid method [30 ]. Calcium chloride (CaCl2, 99%, Loba, Mumbai, India) and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3, Loba, Mumbai, India) were used for CSH preparation.

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.
