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 10mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0. 1000mL, DNase/RNase Tested, Sterile 6 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.

TAPS is an aminosulfonate-based lysozyme stabilizer and connexin channel inhibitor. It helps maintain the native structure of lysozyme in aqueous solution at pH 7.0 and protects it from heat-induced denaturation. TAPS is also considered a critical compound for investigating the structure and function of connexin channels.
- Maintains native structure of lysozyme in aqueous solution at pH 7.0
- Protects lysozyme from heat-induced denaturation
- Directly inhibits heteromeric connexin 32/connexin 26 channels (Cx32/Cx26)
- Reduces connexin channel-mediated solute exchange in a recombinant liposome system
- Critical compound for investigating connexin channel structure and function
