Supplier:  MP Biomedicals, Inc 0219485594

Catalog No. MP219485594

Description

• Tris has been useful as buffers in a wide variety of biological systems.
• Uses include pH control in vitro and in vivo for body fluids and in buffering systems for electrophoresis applications.
• Tris has been used as a starting material for polymers, oxazolones (with carboxylic acids) and oxazolidines (with aldehydes).
• Tris does not precipitate calcium salts and is of value in maintaining solubility of manganese salts.
• It can be used for the 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.
• It is an auxiliary material in pharmaceutical science
