What are ethanol solutions?

Ethanol solutions are widely used in life science laboratories and manufacturing facilities for surface disinfection, equipment cleaning, and molecular biology workflows. Ethanol is an effective antimicrobial agent that denatures proteins and disrupts cell membranes, making it a cornerstone reagent for maintaining aseptic workspaces.

 

In molecular biology applications, ethanol solutions are commonly used for DNA and RNA precipitation, nucleic acid purification, and sample preparation. We offer ready-to-use RUO- or GMP-grade ethanol solutions in commonly used concentrations, including 70% ethanol solutions and higher-percentage formulations, eliminating the need for in-house dilution and reducing preparation variability.

Why choose Teknova's ethanol solutions?

Our ethanol solutions are supplied as ready-to-use formulations, saving time and minimizing the variability associated with in-house solution preparation. Each ethanol solution, including our 18%, 20%, 70%, and 95% solutions, is pre-diluted to an accurate concentration to ensure consistent results and is available in multiple container sizes ranging from convenient benchtop bottles to bulk bag formats.


Designed to integrate seamlessly into routine laboratory and manufacturing operations, we support applications ranging from daily surface-cleaning protocols to sensitive molecular biology procedures. All products are manufactured under rigorous quality control standards to ensure purity and lot-to-lot consistency, and we also offer custom manufacturing services if you need custom ethanol solutions, tailored container formats, or bulk quantities to meet specialized laboratory or bioprocessing requirements.

Ethanol solutions are commonly used for surface disinfection, equipment cleaning, and maintaining aseptic work areas. In molecular biology workflows, ethanol solutions are also widely used for DNA and RNA precipitation, nucleic acid purification, and sample preparation.

70% ethanol solutions are widely used for disinfection because the presence of water enhances protein denaturation and improves antimicrobial effectiveness, whereas higher concentrations can evaporate too quickly.

Yes. Our ethanol solutions are supplied pre-diluted and ready to use, eliminating the need for in-house preparation and helping ensure consistent concentration and performance from batch to batch.

All of our ethanol solutions can be stored at room temperature, and most have a shelf life of 1,095 days. The storage instructions and shelf life for your specific product can be found on your product label.
