Float Buoys, for 0.1 mL Slide-A-Lyzer™ MINI Dialysis Devices

The Slide-A-Lyzer MINI Dialysis Unit is compatible with alcohols, ketones, esters, oxides, and solvents containing nitrogen.
Alkalis: 1N sodium hydroxide or 1N ammonium hydroxide may cause pore swelling or shrinkage; not recommended to be used with 1N potassium hydroxide
Acids: Will survive weak acids (100% acetic or formic acids), or ~25% phosphoric or sulfuric acids; it should not be used with >25% strong acids, although a weak solution of a strong acid may work

- Wearing gloves, apply sample (0.01-0.1 mL) using a pipette.
- OPTIONAL: Soak the Slide-A-Lyzer MINI Dialysis Unit to remove trace contaminants.
- Cap the Slide-A-Lyzer MINI Dialysis Unit (to minimize loss) and snap it into the float (sold separately).
- Insert the float into the beaker containing the dialysate.
- Recover sample.
