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

Apexbio Technology LLC PBS Liposomes(Synonyms: Phosphate Buffered Saline Liposomes, Empty Liposomes, Blank Liposomes), 10mL.
PBS Liposomes consist of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) encapsulated within lipid bilayers serving primarily as control reagents in macrophage depletion studies involving clodronate liposomes Unlike clodronate-loaded liposomes PBS liposomes lack active agents targeting macrophages and thus do not induce macrophage apoptosis They function to discriminate between the biological effects mediated by liposomal delivery systems versus those specifically attributable to encapsulated clodronate PBS Liposomes are commonly employed in comparative experimental designs to assess specific macrophage depletion outcomes
Gold Biotechnology Inc Tris HCl 500 g
Tris hydrochloride is a reagent that is used for the stabilization of buffer formulations and electrophoresis of biological molecules
Gold Biotechnology Inc MES Free Acid 1 kg
MES is a buffering agent used in biochemistry and molecular biology that was selected and described by Good et al It is a zwitterionic morpholinic buffer that is useful for a pH range of 5 5 6 7 and commonly used for cell culture media as a running buffer in electrophoresis and for protein purification in chromatography MES lacks the ability to form a complex with most metal ions and is recommended for use as a non-coordinating buffer in solutions with metal ions MES is often used in buffered culture media for bacteria yeast and mammalian cells It is toxic towards plants at high concentrations but can be used in culture media at lower concentrations for plants Due to low ionic mobility MES is regarded as an excellent buffer for use in capillary electrochromatography MES is often employed as a substitute for the highly toxic cacodylate as well as a substitute for the non-zwitterionic buffers citrate and malate
Quality Biological Inc TAE Buffer 50X, 10 Liters
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
Teknova 1M Tris-HCl, pH 8.3, 1000mL, Sterile.
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.
