CAS 10099-58-8: Lanthanum chloride, (LaCl3)

Lanthanum chloride solutions are used in various water treatment applications. It is also used in biochemical research. Doped with cerium, it is applied as a scintillator material. In organic synthesis, lanthanum trichloride functions as a mild lewis acid. This compound is used in gamma detectors. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Lanthanum(III) chloride, anhydrous (99.9%-La) (REO)

Lanthanum chloride is a white crystalline salt that is used as an additive in steel production. It also has the property of increasing the mitochondrial membrane potential, which is important for energy metabolism. Lanthanum chloride has been shown to be effective in the treatment of brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, and can also be used to treat oxidative injury. Lanthanum chloride has been shown to inhibit polymerase chain reactions by competitively binding to DNA, inhibiting RNA synthesis and leading to cell death. Lanthanum chloride binds to the ryanodine receptor in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, causing calcium release from this organelle and leading to muscle contractions.
