How to prepare a 3000 ppm Indole Butyric Acid (IBA) Solution



Step 1.
To prepare 3000ppm IBA solution, take 3GMs of IBA technical (98% purity) and dissolve it in 10 ml of solvent (Iso-Propyl Alcohol). You have to keep stirring the solution. 

Step 2.
If the IBA does not dissolve completely, add 2 ml of solvent at a time and stir the solution. Keep repeating till the complete IBA dissolves.

Step 3.
Now suppose for example, the complete IBA dissolves in 20 ml of solvent. Then you need to add 1000ml (1 Litre) - 20ml = 980 ml of distilled water to this solution and stir it well.
