General description

Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) has a pH buffering range between 7.0 - 9.0 and is a routine buffer in biological sciences. Tris is used majorly in combination with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), especially for electrophoretic studies. It displays negligible binding towards metal in solutions.
A series of Pre-mixed solutions of TRIZMA Base and TRIZMA HCl to provide commonly used pH values for Tris buffers. No mixing or pH adjustment necessary. Guaranteed accuracy ± 0.1 pH units.

Application

Trizma® hydrochloride solution has been used as a component of lysis buffer for testing on commercially available biological sample preservation paper types. It has also been used as a vehicle and for dissolving leptin in reporter gene assay studies.
