Note: in most cases when it comes to reagents it doesn't matter how they were produced - a compound is a compound, no matter where it does come from. Things like concentration, pH, presence of other reagents recipe calls for are much more important. In practice sometimes (rarely, but often enough it is always a thing to remember) minute amounts of byproducts (which do depend on the production method) can influence the output of a process. The purer the reagent, the lower chances of the problem - but purity typically comes at a hefty price.
As I wrote earlier - the only to make sure it works is to try.
