FAQs
What is Lab Pro Deionized Water, ACS Type I, used for?
It is used in laboratories to prepare reagents and standards, perform analytical and research procedures, rinse glassware, and dilute chemicals, where extremely low ionic contamination and high-purity water are required.
What does ASTM Type I (D1193) mean?
ASTM Type I water represents the highest purity laboratory water classification, with very low ionic, organic, and particulate content. It is typically required for sensitive analytical techniques and critical laboratory applications.
What does 18 MΩ·cm resistivity indicate?
A resistivity of 18 MΩ·cm indicates extremely low dissolved ionic content. This level of purity minimizes interference in analytical measurements and ensures consistent, reliable results in laboratory experiments and testing.
Is this deionized water sterile?
No. Lab Pro Deionized Water is non-sterile. While it is highly purified and low in ions, it is not intended for sterile or clinical applications without additional sterilization steps.
How should deionized water be stored?
It should be stored in clean, tightly sealed containers at ambient temperature to prevent contamination. Containers should be kept closed when not in use to maintain purity and resistivity.
