Product Information
| Description: | Pyrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) consisting of four thickened benzene rings that exhibits strong fluorescence, emitting in the blue region of the spectrum, and can be used as a probe of molecular interactions in solution and on surfaces, as well as in studies related to PAHs in the environment and biological systems. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
