					<h4 class="h4">Function</h4>
			<div class="product__description-small">
			In medicine, potassium acetate is used as part of replacement protocols in the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis because of its ability to break down into bicarbonate and help neutralize the acidotic state.  In molecular biology, potassium acetate is used to precipitate dodecyl sulfate (DS) and DS-bound proteins, allowing the removal of proteins from DNA. It is also used as a salt for the ethanol precipitation of DNA.  Potassium acetate is used in mixtures applied for tissue preservation, fixation, and mummification.			</div>
