Chloroform ≥99% Lab Grade is stabilized with Ethanol and appears as a clear, colorless, volatile solvent at room temperature. Lab grade chemicals have some unknown impurities that restrict their use in food, drug, and medical applications, but such chemicals possess sufficient purity for use in general laboratory, educational and training situations. Chloroform ≥99% Lab Grade is suitable for use in pesticide analysis, and gas chromatography, and it can be widely used as a common, general laboratory solvent.
