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

Boston Bioproducts Inc Tris Buffered Saline, TBS (10X, for Western Blot Washing) - 1L
The Tris Buffered Saline (TBS) is an isotonic non-toxic buffer solution used commonly in biochemical applications. Tris maintains a stable pH range typically between 7.4 to 8.0 while NaCl regulates osmotic balance via its elected concentration. Tris maintains a stable pH range typically between 7.4 to 8.0 while NaCl regulates osmotic balance via its elected concentration. This TBS Solution is formulated at a 10X concentration, and is useful for washing in Western Blotting.
Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals Biosciences Dulbeccos Modified Eagles500ML
A measured mixture of chemically defined ingredients makes up a basal medium which is a type of complex media. DMEM is a medium supplemented with serum and sometimes with tryptose phosphate broth (TPB). DMEM/f-12 is a completely defined synthetic medium which is protein-free.
Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals Biosciences Dulbeccos Modified Eagles500ML
This DMEM-Hi glucose medium is a 1x complete medium with sodium pyruvate added. It also differs from the original DMEM-Hi formulation wherein pyridoxine is substituted for pyridoxal. Pyridoxal is an unstable component of media.
Quality Biological Inc TAE Buffer 50X, 1000 mL
TAE buffer provides faster electrophoretic migration of linear DNA and better resolution of supercoiled DNA. ¿ TAE Buffer may be more suitable than TBE, for electrophoresis if DNA is to be recovered from the agarose and purified using commercially available DNA purification kits. ¿ Applications: TAE buffer has a relatively low buffering capacity, therefore, periodic replacement of the buffer during prolonged electrophoresis is recommended. ¿ Storage Conditions: 15¿C to 30¿C ¿ Shipping Condition: ambient temperature ¿ Sterile Filtered ¿ DNase RNase and Protease Tested ¿ Concentration: 2 M Tris base and 0.05 M disodium EDTA dihydrate ¿ Product and/or packaging contains recycled/renewable content ¿ Product and/or packaging is recyclable or reduces waste ¿ Product and/or packaging is safer to human and environmental health ¿ ¿ Max Shelf Life: 36 months
