Usages:

Potassium Aacetate can be used in the production of betapen, reagent, anhydrous ethanol, catalyst, auxiliary and filler. It can be used as a deicer instead of chloride salts such as Calcium Chloride or Magnesium Chloride. It offers the advantage of being less aggressive on soils and much less corrosive, and for this reason is preferred for airport runways. It is, however, more expensive. Potassium acetate is also the extinguishing agent used in class K fire extinguishers because of its ability to cool and form a crust over burning oils. In medicine, It 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. It is used as a food additive as a preservative and acidity regulator. In molecular biology, It 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. It is used in mixtures applied for tissue preservation, fixation, and mummification. Most museums today use the Formaldehyde-based method recommended by Kaiserling in 1897 which contains Potassium Acetate.
