Rubidium Chloride
Application Notes
Rubidium chloride is used as a catalyst and additive in gasoline. In materials science, RbCl has been used to prepare molecular nanowires as potential precursors of nanoscale devices. In chromatography, RbCl and other univalent salts have been studied for their influence on the capillary electrophoretic separation of amino acids labeled with 3-(4-carboxybenzoyl)-quinoline-2-carboxaldehyde. RbCl is utilized in the transfection of bacteria. RbCl has been used to investigate the gating and permeability of ion channels produced by botulinum neurotoxin types A and E in membranes from cultured PC12 cells.
