Gibco™ HEPES (1M)

Description

Gibco HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) is a zwitterionic organic chemical buffering agent commonly used in cell culture media. It is membrane impermeable, relatively stable, and has limited interference in key processes.

Gibco HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid) is a zwitterionic organic chemical buffering agent commonly used in cell culture media. The addition of 10–25 mM HEPES provides extra buffering capacity when cell culture requires extended periods of manipulation outside of a CO₂ incubator.

Gibco HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethane sulfonic acid) is a good buffering choice for many cell culture systems because it:

• Is membrane impermeable
• Has limited effect on biochemical reactions
• Is chemically and enzymatically stable
• Has a very low visible and UV light absorbance
