Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) is a balanced salt solution that is used for a variety of cell culture applications, such as washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells or tissue samples, diluting cells for counting, and preparing reagents. PBS is formulated without calcium and magnesium for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation.
Description
Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) is a balanced salt solution that is used for a variety of cell culture applications, such as washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells or tissue samples, diluting cells for counting, and preparing reagents. PBS is formulated without calcium and magnesium for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation.
Application
A concentrated, standard phosphate buffer solution.
pH Range: 7.3 - 7.5
Recommended Storage Condition: Room temperature
Linear acrylamide is widely used as one of the coprecipitants which are inert substances used to aid recovery of nucleic acids before alcohol precipitations.
Brij-35 (30% Solution) is a nonionic polyoxyethylene surfactant that is most frequently used as a component of cell lysis buffers or as a surfactant in various HPLC applications.
TAE buffer is the most commonly used buffer for DNA agarose gel electrophoresis but is also used for non-denaturing RNA agarose gel electrophoresis1. Double-stranded DNA tends to run faster in TAE than in other buffers but can also become exhausted during extended electrophoresis.
Ammonium Persulfate (APS) is an oxidizing agent that is used with TEMED to catalyze the polymerization of acrylamide and bisacrylamide to prepare polyacrylamide gels for electrophoresis.
Kanamycin Sulfate solution is an aminoglycoside antibiotic consisting of a six-membered aminocyclitol ring attached to aminosugar side chains through glycosidic bonds. Kanamycin Sulfate solution acts by inhibiting protein synthesis, and compromising translational fidelity in susceptible bacteria.
Sodium hydroxide is commonly used in the clandestine production of methamphetamine to change the pH of the solution to a basic pH so that it can become soluble in an organic solution.
Tris Buffered Saline (TBS) is an isotonic, non-toxic buffer used in some biomedical techniques to maintain pH within a relatively narrow range. TBS can shift pH relatively drastically as temperature changes, with the pKa declining approximately 0.03 units per degree Celsius rise in temperature.
TRITON X-114 is used in biochemical applications to solubilize and separate proteins due to its low cloud point (23 °C).
D-(+)-Glucose is a common natural sugar involved in processes such as energy production, glycosylation, and formation of glycans that provide structure to cells. Glucose is involved in a detrimental process in cells called glycation. Glucose is used as a supplement for cell culture and in numerous cellular processes and molecular biology applications.
MCLAB's high-purity 30% acrylamide/bis-acrylamide solution is a safer alternative to handling powdered acrylamide.
Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) has many uses as a carrier protein and as a stabilizing agent in enzymatic reactions. MCLAB’s Ultrapure BSA is a "non-acetylated" BSA, pure enough to use when the integrity of DNA or RNA is essential. It has been tested for DNase, RNase, endonuclease, protease, peroxidase, and alkaline phosphatase activity, and assayed for fluorescence background.
Used to select for ampicillin resistance in mutated and transformed cells.
TWEEN-40 is a class of emulsifiers used in some pharmaceutical and food preparations. It is often used in cosmetics to solubilize essential oils into water-based products. Polysorbates are oily liquid derived from PEGylated sorbitan (a derivative of sorbitol) esterified with fatty acids.
TWEEN 20 helps to prevent non-specific antibody binding in enzyme immunoassay as a washing agent (e.g. Western blots and ELISAs). In this major application, it is dissolved in Tris-Buffered Saline or Phosphate buffered saline at dilutions of 0.05% to 0.5% v/v.
Ammonium Sulfate. (NH4)2SO4 is an inorganic salt with a number of commercial uses.
Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) is a balanced salt solution that is used for a variety of cell culture applications, such as washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells or tissue samples, diluting cells for counting, and preparing reagents. PBS is formulated without calcium and magnesium for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation.
