Description

Sodium azide, CAS # 26628-22-8, is the sodium salt of hydrogen azide (hydrazoic acid). This compound shows antibacterial and mutagenic activities. It also can inhibit the mitochondrial respiratory chain.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Acros Organics product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Acros Organics product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

General Information

• Sodium azide is a precursor for preparing inorganic azides such as lead azide and silver azide
• One mechanism of action associated with this compound can be related to the inhibition of mitochondrial ATPase, that consequently suppresses oxidative phosphorylation

Applications

• Sodium azide is an inorganic compound with antibacterial and mutagenic activities mainly used in biological samples
• Sodium azide inhibits cytochrome oxidase in gram-negative bacteria. However, its antibacterial capacity is more limited in some gram-positive bacteria (streptococci, pneumococci, lactobacilli), presenting intrinsic resistance
• Sodium azide is used for the introduction of an azide group to prepare a desired compound
• It is useful in biochemical approaches as a probe reagent and a preservative
• This compound can be used to synthetize blue fluorescent copolymers and metal phosphonates
