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

Electron Microscopy Sciences Hepes Buffer Solution 0.2M, 7.0-8.0 pH 500 ML
Our buffers are ideal for maintaining a constant pH during fixation and have an ionic constitution to prevent the extraction of cellular components or the deposition of precipitates of fixative chemicals. The buffers are prepared fresh for each order and conveniently packaged. Desired pH should be specified when ordering.
pH: 7.0-8.0

Research Products International Corp TRIS BUFFERED SALINE, 10X SOLUTION, 10 LITER
TBS 10X Solution (Tris Buffered Saline) is a concentrated buffered salt solution containing Tris and sodium chloride. It maintains pH stability and provides ionic strength for biological experiments. Tris acts as a buffering agent to keep pH consistent, while sodium chloride mimics physiological conditions. Dilute 10X solution with distilled water to prepare working concentrations (e.g., 1X). TBS is widely used in protein and nucleic acid blotting, immunohistochemistry, and molecular biology techniques, ensuring stable and reproducible results across diverse applications.
