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

Annexin V is a Ca2 -dependent phospholipid-binding protein that specifically binds to phosphatidylserine (PS) Under normal conditions PS resides on the inner side of the cell membrane lipid bilayer However in early apoptosis PS translocates from the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane to the outer surface becoming exposed externally Annexin V exhibits high binding affinity for PS and when conjugated with fluorescent molecules (Cy5) it serves as a fluorescent probe to detect apoptosis using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy The staining procedure requires only 10 20 minutes PI specifically binds to double-stranded DNA to produce red fluorescence it is normally impermeant to intact cell membranes However during late-stage apoptosis or in dead cells PI penetrates the membrane to stain nuclear DNA Combined Annexin V-Cy5 and PI staining allows distinction between cells at various stages of apoptosis and dead cells
