Regisil® BSTFA (RC-1)
Chemical Name:
Bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide
CAS #:
25561-30-2
Description:
BSTFA reacts faster and more completely than BSA, due to the trifluoroacetamide leaving group. The high volatility of BSTFA and its byproducts results in non-co-elution of early eluting peaks. Additionally, the highly volatile and stable products result in low detector noise and fouling.
