Pre-Made Buffers Save Time and Reduce Error

Skip the weighing, dissolving, and pH adjustment. Our pre-made biology buffers are manufactured with reagent-grade chemicals, filtered through 0.2 µm membranes, and QC-tested for pH accuracy and sterility. Available as ready-to-use 1× solutions or concentrated stocks (5×, 10×, 20×, 50×) for labs that prefer to dilute on-site.

BUFFER COMPARISON

TAE vs. TBE for gel electrophoresis

PropertyTAE (Tris-Acetate-EDTA)TBE (Tris-Borate-EDTA)
ResolutionGood for large DNA (>2 kb)Better for small DNA (<1 kb)
Buffer CapacityLower — exhausts fasterHigher — lasts longer
Run TimeStandardLonger (higher ionic strength)
DNA RecoveryBetter — acetate does not inhibit ligaseBorate can inhibit enzymatic reactions
Best ForGel extraction, cloning, routine sizingSmall-fragment resolution, sequencing gels
💡PBS Formulations

We carry multiple PBS formulations: PBS (pH 7.4) for general washing, DPBS (Dulbecco’s) with and without calcium/magnesium for cell culture, and PBST (PBS + 0.05% Tween-20) ready-to-use for western blot and ELISA washing. Choose the right formulation for your application—calcium-free DPBS is required for trypsinization protocols.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Biology Buffer FAQ

Most pre-made buffers have a 2–3 year shelf life when stored at room temperature in sealed containers. Sterile-filtered buffers (like PBS for cell culture) should be stored according to label instructions, typically at 2–8°C after opening.

Buy 1× if you want convenience and no dilution error. Buy concentrated stock (10×, 50×) if you use large volumes and want to save on shipping costs and storage space. A 1 L bottle of 50× TAE makes 50 L of working buffer.

Buffers intended for cell culture (PBS, DPBS) are sterile-filtered through 0.2 µm membranes and packaged aseptically. Electrophoresis buffers (TAE, TBE) are not sterile but are filtered to remove particulates.

Yes. We offer TE buffer without EDTA (Tris-only) and PBS without EDTA for applications where chelation interferes with downstream reactions, such as certain enzyme assays and metal-dependent protocols.

Using buffers in high volume?
We offer 10 L and 20 L carboys of popular buffers at significant per-liter savings. Ask about our bulk buffer program.
