Life Science Buffers
Balanced salt solutions and powders used for molecular, protein, nucleic acid, and cell biology applications including cell culture, electrophoresis, ELISA, and chromatography processes; available in a variety of formulations and grades.
Buffer solutions serve to keep pH (acidity or alkalinity) nearly constant in a variety of chemical and biological applications. For example, a bicarbonate buffer helps maintain the pH of blood, a buffered saline maintains cellular contents at a consistent pH level, and buffers help maintain a narrow pH range for enzymes to function correctly.
Most biological samples used in research are kept at a pH of about 7.4. Common biological buffers used for tissue culture include Dulbeccos phosphate buffered saline (PBS), Tris base, HEPES, MOPS, PIPES, and other formulations developed for specific cell lines or applications. Most buffers used in cell culture are also DNase-, RNase-, and protease-free.
The choice of buffer for a particular biological reaction or site depends on several factors:
- Temperature
- Desired or target pH
- Buffer toxicity (to the system)
- Buffer interactions with other system components

Teknova 20x PBS with 0.05% Tween-20. 500mL, Sterile. 8 pack.
Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) is a salt solution that is commonly used in physiological and biochemical experiments. It can be used to maintain pH neutrality or to buffer against changes in pH in order to provide optimal conditions for cellular growth and function. The buffering range is between pH 6.8 and 7.4.

Alkali Scientific Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, EDTA Free, 20 Tablets
Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, EDTA-Free (Tablet Form), is a versatile enzyme inhibitor formulation that effectively prevents protease activity during protein extraction. Offered in a convenient tablet form, this product allows for easy and precise inhibitor preparation in a range of biological samples. The EDTA-free formulation is particularly useful when metal ion-dependent proteases need to be targeted without interfering with sample components. This product is widely used for protein isolation from tissues and cells, particularly in applications like immunoassays, Western blotting, and enzyme activity studies, where protein integrity is critical.
Ethos Biosciences Dilurex PBS Casein Sucrose Blocker, 1000ml, Ethos
Dilurex PBS Casein Sucrose Blocking Buffer offers the best price to performance ratio on the market. The base system is phosphate buffered saline - perfect for systems that are using PBS as a diluent or reaction buffer. Casein is used as the blocking protein which binds to unoccupied hydrophobic or charged sites on assay surfaces preventing unwanted non-specific binding of antibodies, enzymes, or other proteins leading to clearer, more reliable signals. Sucrose stabilizes your mixture by preserving the folding integrity of proteins during drying or freezing. Choose one of our other blocking buffers if your assay is detecting phosphoproteins, uses biotin/streptavidin detection, Alkaline Phosphatase detection, autoimmune assays, or aldehyde coated substrates in case of potential interference.
Alkali Scientific CellPro™ PBS, 10X, pH 7.4, 500mL, 500ml, 10/case
CellPro™ PBS, 10X, pH7.4, 500mL Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) is a balanced salt solution that is used for a variety of cell culture applications, such as washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells or tissue samples, diluting cells for counting, and preparing reagents. PBS is formulated without calcium and magnesium for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation. Concentrated forms of Gibco™ PBS may require pH adjustment at the time of dilution.
