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 1M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5. 500ml Sterile. 4 pack.
Tris (tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane) is used as a component ofbuffer solutions, especially for solutions ofnucleic acids. The useful buffer range for tris (pH 7–9) is similar to the pH of most living organisms. This, and its low cost, make tris one of the most common buffers in the biology/biochemistry laboratory.
Teknova SM Buffer. 1000mL, Sterile 2 pack.
100mM Sodium Chloride, 8mM Magnesium Sulfate,0.01% Gelatin, 50mM Tris-HCl
Teknova 1M MOPS, pH 7.0. 1000mL, Sterile. Endotoxin Tested. 2 pack.
MOPS (3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid) is a Good’s buffer and has a pKa of 7.01, making it an ideal buffer for many biological systems at near-neutral pH. MOPS can be used in cell culture media and biopharma buffer formulations as well as in the purification of antibodies, peptides, proteins and blood components. It is nontoxic to cell culture lines.
Teknova 5X TBE DNA Sequencing Grade Solution. 4L, Non-Sterile. 4 pack.
445mM Tris, 445mM Boric Acid, 10mM Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)
Boston Bioproducts Inc Tris Buffered Saline, TBS (10X, pH 7.4, Low Endotoxin) - 100ml
The Tris Buffered Saline (TBS) is an isotonic non-toxic buffer solution used commonly in biochemical immunoassay as a wash buffer. 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 tested for endotoxin.
ILEX LIFE SCIENCES LLC GELATIN SOLUTION 0.1 500ML
PAN-Biotech Gelatin Solution 0.1% in DPBS, w/o: Ca, Mg (500 ml). DESCRIPTION: PAN-Biotech Gelatin Solution 0.1% in DPBS, w/o: Ca, Mg for laboratory research applications. Gelatin is a heterogenous mixture of water soluble proteins of high average molecular weight present in collagen. The proteins are extracted by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, or bones in water. APPLICATION: Applications using gelatin include coating cell culture plates to improve cell attachment for a variety of cell types, addition to PCR to stabilize Taq DNA Polymerase, and use as a blocking agent in Western Blotting, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry. In bacteriology, gelatin can be used as a component of culture media. STORAGE: +2-8°C. MANUFACTURER: PAN-Biotech GmbH. COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Germany.
ILEX LIFE SCIENCES LLC TRYPSIN 10X P10-022100 100ML
PAN-Biotech (10x) Trypsin 2.5 % in PBS, w/o: Ca and Mg (6 x 100 ml). DESCRIPTION: PAN-Biotech (10x) Trypsin 2.5% in PBS, w/o: Ca and Mg is a porcine pancreas-derived enzyme in a 10x concentrated PBS solution. It is commonly used for the dissociation of anchorage-dependent (adherent) mammalian cells and tissues from culture surfaces. The concentration of trypsin necessary to dislodge cells from their substrate is dependent on the cell type and the age of the culture. APPLICATION: Enzymatic solution for the dissociation and disaggregation of anchorage-dependent mammalian cells and tissues. Trypsin solutions can range from 0.025% to 0.5% depending on application. LIQUID/POWDER: Liquid. PHENOL RED: Without Phenol Red. Ca/Mg CONTENT: Without Ca and Mg. TRYPSIN: 2.50% Trypsin. EDTA: No EDTA. STERILE: Yes. STORAGE TEMP: -20°C. MANUFACTURER: PAN-Biotech GmbH (Germany).
