Frequently Asked Questions
What are Good’s buffers, and why are they important?
Good’s buffers are a set of zwitterionic compounds designed to maintain stable pH in biochemical and biological research. They are widely used in cell culture, enzyme assays, and protein purification due to their high stability and minimal reactivity with biomolecules.
What are examples of Good’s buffers?
Common Good’s buffers include HEPES, MES, MOPS, PIPES, Tris, and Tricine. Each buffer is designed for specific pH ranges and applications, ensuring optimal performance in biological and biochemical experiments.
How do I choose the right Good’s buffer for my experiment?
The selection depends on the required pH range and application. For example, HEPES is ideal for physiological conditions, MES is used in protein purification, and Tricine is optimal for SDS-PAGE separation of low molecular weight proteins.
