Bleaching Powder Extra Pure is a high-purity, white to slightly yellowish powder composed primarily of calcium hypochlorite, widely used in laboratory settings for disinfection, oxidation, and chemical analysis. It serves as a strong oxidizing agent and is employed in qualitative tests for halogens, water treatment simulations, and preparation of chlorine-based reagents. In microbiology and environmental science labs, it is often used to sterilize surfaces and decontaminate samples. The extra pure grade ensures high available chlorine content and minimal impurities, making it reliable for precision applications. It should be stored in a cool, dry place, in airtight containers, away from moisture, organic substances, and acids to maintain its stability and reactivity.
