Key Properties:
1. Efficient Buffer: Excellent buffering range of pH 6.5 – 7.9.
2. Low Interference: Exhibits minimal reactivity with metal ions, making it ideal for studies requiring non-coordinating conditions.
3. High Purity: Available in various grades, including cell culture and bio-performance certified.
4. Limitations: It can interfere with the Folin protein assay and partially decompose if autoclaved with glucose.
Applications
1. Cell Culture: Maintains pH stability in culture media for mammalian cells, bacteria, yeast, and other cell types; typically used at concentrations not exceeding 20 mM.
2. Nucleic Acid and Protein Research: Applications include RNA denaturing agarose gel electrophoresis, protein purification, and electrophoretic separation; serves as a commonly used buffering system for RNA electrophoresis.
3. Biochemistry and Molecular Biology: Functions as a buffering component in various reagent kits (e.g., PCR, DNA extraction); widely utilized in diagnostic reagents and biosynthesis.
