Sodium Acetate [3M, pH 5.2]

3M Sodium Acetate [pH 5.2] is a high-concentration buffer solution, primarily used in molecular biology for nucleic acid precipitation during DNA and RNA extractions, as well as for other applications like protein crystallization, protein gel staining, and certain chromatography techniques. It's a sterile, often nuclease-free solution that helps to aggregate and precipitate nucleic acids from an aqueous solution.
