Tris Hydrochloride, MP Biomedicals™

Description

Useful as buffers in a wide variety of biological systems. Tris Hydrochloride, MP Biomedicals provides pH control in vitro and in vivo for body fluids and in buffering systems for electrophoresis applications. It has been used as a starting material for p

Uses include:

• pH control in vitro and in vivo for body fluids
• In buffering systems for electrophoresis applications
• As a starting material for polymers, oxazolones (with carboxylic acids) and oxazolidines (with aldehydes)
• Direct standardization of a strong acid solution; the equivalence point can be determined either potentiometrically or by use of a suitable indicator such as 3-(4-Dimethylamino-1-naphthylazo)-4-methoxybenzenesulfonic acid
