BUFFER SALTS (FOR BIOLOGICAL)

Buffer salts (for Biological) belong to biological buffer systems, which contain dozens of varieties like buffered electrolyte salts.

 

Tris, HEPES are among the typical varieties.

 

Tris is a buffered salt widely used in the field of biomedicine. Buffered Salt is a combination mineral supplement that may be helpful in reducing tiredness.

 

AVT has newly launched tromethamine (TRIS), which is in the process of NMPA and US FDA registration.

 

The product advantages including high purity, low impurities, production in accordance with GMP guideline, stable supply and high cost-effective.

BUFFERED SALT (FOR BIOLOGICAL) EFFECTS

01

Tromethamine (Tris) is a buffer salt widely used in the field of biomedicine. Chemical formula is C4H11NO3. It is white crystalline particles, commonly used in protein or nucleic acid buffers. The effective range is usually between pH 7.0-9.2.

 

02

Tris is used for the growth of protein crystals under different pH conditions. Tris is also one of the main components of protein electrophoresis buffer. It forms a buffer system with glycine in the electrophoresis buffer to stabilize the pH during electrophoresis.

 

03

In addition, Tris is also an intermediate in the preparation of surfactants, vulcanization accelerators and some drugs. Titration standard substance is also its usage.

 

HOW DO BUFFER SALTS (FOR BIOLOGICAL) WORK?

How do Buffer Salts (for Biological) Work?

1. The basicity of Tris base is strong, so we can use only this buffer system to prepare buffers with a wide range of pH ranging from acidic to basic. The application range is wide.

 

2. Tris buffer has little interference with biochemical processes and does not precipitate with calcium, magnesium ions and heavy metal ions.

 

3. Tris is highly soluble in water and is inert to many enzyme reactions.

 

4. Tris has high buffering capacity, especially between pH 7.5-9.0.

 

5. Tris buffer is widely used and plays an important role in biochemistry, molecular biology, in vitro diagnosis, cosmetics, coatings and other fields.
