SURAT CHEMICAL TAG::
Offered lithium acetate is used as a catalyst in the production of polyester, alkyd resin and acrylic polymer.Uses. Lithium acetate is used in the laboratory as buffer for gel electrophoresis of DNA and RNA. It has a lower electrical conductivity and can be run at higher speeds than can gels made from TAE buffer (5-30V/cm as compared to 5-10V/cm).
Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
Lithium acetate dihydrate is used as a buffer component in the modified ninhydrin reagent for amino analysis by ion-exchange chromatography. It is used as a catalyst in organic reactions, alkyd resin and acrylic polymer production and as an anticorrosion agent in molding polyphenylene sulfide resins as well as in the separation of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is utilized for the preparation of diuretics.
In my practice, patients typically take 0.3 - 0.6mg of ionic or plant-based lithium supplements. For more serious psychiatric or neurological disorders, 5mg or more of lithium orotate may be beneficial.
