Lithium Acetate Powder Applications
Lithium Acetate Powder is also used to permeabilize the cell wall of yeast for use in DNA transformation. It is believed that the beneficial effect of LiAc is caused by its chaotropic effect denaturing both DNA, RNA, and proteins. Lithium acetate is a lithium source and a doping salt that can be used in the preparation of plasticized polymer electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries.
