Carminic Acid is a richly pigmented anthraquinone dye, refined to biotechnology-grade purity and supplied as a stable powder for advanced biochemical and immunological research. Our Carminic Acid Dye (Catalog #B2012274, 100 mg) offers consistent coloration, spectral clarity, and reliable performance across applications such as interference testing, assay calibration, and molecular visualization. Its well-defined chemical properties ensure data integrity in methods demanding accurate absorption or fluorescence-based readouts.

The reagent’s extremely low impurity level makes it ideal for sensitive detection contexts—ranging from spectrophotometric studies to histological markers in tissue applications. Supplied in a ready-to-use powder form and stored at –20 °C for long-term retention of quality and stability, it supports robust experimental reproducibility. Bulk orders are available for projects requiring scalable inventory or extended experimental continuity.

Why researchers choose this product:

  • High-purity, biotechnology-grade dye with consistent spectral performance
  • Ideal for calibration, interference testing, and visualization workflows
  • Powder format ensures precise measurement and long-term stability
  • Low-background performance suitable for sensitive detection methods
  • Bulk supply available for long-term research initiatives

Indication for Use:
This product is for Research Use Only (RUO). It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical use.
