Ambion® Acid Phenol:Chloroform:IAA (25:24:1) is premixed and supplied at pH 6.6 (pH 7.9 ± 0.2), with included buffer. Acid Phenol:Chloroform:IAA is provided in one bottle of 400 mL. In RNA and DNA extraction procedures, Acid Phenol:Chloroform:IAA (pH 7.9) helps to stabilize the interface and prevents foaming when mixing. Preparation of phenol for use in molecular biology applications is a time-consuming and often hazardous procedure due to its toxic and corrosive nature. Ambion® premixed, quality tested, saturated phenols are ready-to-use, eliminating handling problems and offering a more convenient, safer, and easier alternative to preparing solutions from crystalline phenol.
