Acetic acid

Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a weak carboxylic acid used in peptide chemistry as a mild solvent for basic peptides, as a mobile phase modifier, and in counter-ion exchange to produce acetate salts. Dilute acetic acid, such as 0.1% to 10%, can help dissolve peptides that are poorly soluble in neutral water.
