Re: formic acid stock concentration

From:rkline@emscience.com


FYI
Formic Acid comes in a few concentrations.    In the case of CJD it would
not be diluted.

Formic acid comes as a stock concentration of 88%, I am not sure if this is
diluted, treating stock as 100% and making a 95% solution (v/v), 95 mls
formic acid and 5% water??
