Water is one of the most widely used reagents in any laboratory, yet its quality is often overlooked. Impurities such as ions, organic molecules, microorganisms, and particulates can significantly impact experimental accuracy. This is why choosing the right grade of purified water—Type I, Type II, or Type III—is essential for reliable results.
Type I (Ultrapure Water)
This is the highest grade of water, suitable for highly sensitive applications such as HPLC, cell culture, molecular biology, and protein research. It has extremely low ionic and organic content and ensures maximum reproducibility for critical experiments.
Type II (Pure Water)
Used for general lab applications including media preparation, buffer making, and routine chemical analysis. It maintains controlled levels of impurities and is ideal for feeding Type I purification systems.
Type III (Primary Purified Water)
Typically used for non-critical tasks like glassware washing, autoclave feed, and basic solution preparation. It provides a cost-effective option for daily laboratory needs.
At Essence Life Sciences, we provide advanced water purification systems that deliver consistent, high-quality water across all three types. By choosing the right grade, laboratories can improve accuracy, protect instruments, and maintain workflow efficiency.
