MES, Sodium Salt (2-(N-Morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid sodium salt) is a zwitterionic N-substituted aminosulfonic acid known as a Good's buffer, active in the pH range 6-8 with a pKa of 6.10 at 25° C. With a pKa value near physiological pH, it is not absorbed through cell membranes, and it…

Tris has been useful as buffers in a wide variety of biological systems. Uses include pH control in vitro and in vivo for body fluids and in buffering systems for electrophoresis applications. Tris has been used as a starting material for polymers, oxazolones (with carboxylic acids) and…

Tricine, a zwitterionic buffer, was first prepared by Good for use as a buffer for chloroplast reactions. It is structurally similar to Tris, but is much less inhibitory at high concentrations. The name tricine comes from tris and glycine from which it was derived. Tricine can be used in…

Boric acid has a single boron; its salt forms complex equilibria in solution, with the ion B4O7-2 being the predominant species. Boric acid is used for weatherproofing wood and fireproofing fabrics; as a preservative; manufacturing of cements, crockery, porcelain, enamels, glass, borates,…

MOPS is used as a biological buffer. MOPS is a zwitterionic amino acid which acts as one of the "Good" buffers. It is a structural analog to MES; however, MOPS is a more suitable biological buffer than MES because the pH range is closer to pH 7.4. A buffer using MOPS sodium salt can be…

Borax is a salt of boric acid which is used as a buffer. It has a co-complexing ability with other agents in water to form complex ions with various substances. It is also commonly utilized in chromatography and electrophoresis studies. Borax is typically used as a buffer component,…

MOPS is a zwitterionic amino acid which acts as one of the "Good" buffers. Concentrations higher than 20 mM should not be used with mammalian cell cultures.

HEPES is a zwitterionic organic chemical buffering agent; one of the twelve Good's buffers. HEPES is widely used in cell culture, largely because it is better at maintaining physiological pH despite changes in carbon dioxide concentration (produced by cellular respiration) when compared to…

PIPES is a zwitterionic N-substituted aminosulfonic acid "Good" buffer. Buffers can be made by adding a solution of base to PIPES free acid, titrating to the appropriate pH, or by mixing equimolar solutions of the sesquisodium salt and the disodium salt or dipotassium salt, titrating to…
