General description
This versatile buffer may find widespread application in maintaining a stable environment in solutions dedicated to cell culture media, protein-based buffer formulations, and electrophoresis running buffers. Its significance extends to the purification processes of antibodies, peptides, proteins, blood components, and growth factors. MES Buffer stands out as an optimal choice for capillary electrochromatography, offering low ionic mobility. Notably, it serves as a safer alternative to potentially toxic agents like cacodylate and non-zwitterionic buffers, including citrate and malate. MES Buffer also proves valuable for fine-tuning the pH of growth media, stabilizing enzymatic solutions, and serving as a component of PAGE running buffer in diverse experimental settings.
