    Product Description

    Propylphosphonic acid is a compound that is highly susceptible to degradation by radical species. It has been used to investigate the inactivation of A. hydrophila by free radicals produced spontaneously in oxidizing iron-containing groundwaters.1 It has also been used to identify toxic nerve agents in water samples.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
