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-HCl Buffer (1 M, pH 7.5) - 500ml
The Tris-HCl Buffer is a widely used bufering reagent in molecular biology and biochemistry, acting to maintain a stable pH, and preserve the integrity of target macromolecules. The buffering capacity of Tris-HCl is effective in the pH range of 7.0 to 9.0, making it ideal for many biological applications like cell culture, molecular biology, DNA/RNA extraction, electrophoresis, enzyme assays and immunohistostaining.
AdipoGen Trishydroxymethyl aminometha
Chemical. CAS 77-86-1. Formula C4H11NO3. MW 121.14. Synthetic. A high quality buffer used in the range of physiological pH 7-9. Widely used as a biological buffer or as a component of buffer formulations. Tris has a pKa of 8.06 and is very useful in the biology and biochemistry lab because it has buffering capabilities in the range of the typical physiological pH of most living organisms pH 7.0-9.0. Tris has been reported to interfere with the activity of a number of enzymes, it should therefore be used carefully when studying proteins.
Quality Biological Inc TE pH 7.4 100mL
TE is composed of buffering agent Tris and chelating agent EDTA. EDTA prevents degradation of DNA and RNA by chelating magnesium (or other divalent metal ions). Together this Tris-EDTA based solution solubilizes DNA or RNA while protecting it from degradation.
