General description

Sodium phosphate dibasic (NaH2PO4), also known as disodium phosphate, is a commonly used phosphate salt in biochemistry research due to its versatile properties. It is a key component in the preparation of phosphate buffer saline (PBS) and phosphate buffer, a commonly used buffer solution in many biological applications. In addition to its buffer properties, NaH2PO4 is also used as a precipitating agent to form silver orthophosphate (Ag3PO4) powders, making it a valuable tool in many laboratory settings. Disodium phosphate is also a widely used emulsifier in dairy products such as cheese and other foods.
