- Sodium chloride is widely used in biochemistry and molecular biology research. It is a component of phosphate buffered saline and SSC buffer.
- Applications of sodium chloride include he removal of small nucleic acid fragments from plasmid DNA preparations and the precipitation of DNA from SDS-containing samples.
- Sodium chloride has been used in the purification of bacteriophage arms and the isolation of single-standad DNA from bacteriophage M13.
- Sodium chloride is widely used in protein crystallization.
- It is also used in the column chromatography of proteins. The use of sodium chloride in the analysis of human a-thrombin by hydrophobic interaction HPLC has been reported.
- Capillary elecrophoresis of proteins on the anion exchange column that uses a buffer of phosphate and sodium chloride has been investigated.
