N-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]-3-amionpropanesulfonicacid/TAPS CAS 29915-38-6

[Typical Properties]

Soluble in water. 

[Specification]

[Usage]

TAPS is a widely used zwitterionic buffering agent in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology. In biochemical experimental projects, it can be used as an important pH stabilizer, usually mixed with weak acids and their conjugated bases to obtain an appropriate pH value. The reactions between TAPS and the vast majority of organisms occur under neutral conditions, requiring pH values to be selected between 6 and 8. At the same time, the effective buffering range of the buffer should also be specified between 6 and 8, and it is necessary to ensure that the pH form of the buffer reagent cannot chelate with certain metal chemical ions. In addition, in the field of clinical diagnosis, TAPS is also commonly used as a biological buffer. Usually used in biochemical diagnostic kits, PCR diagnostic kits, DNA/RNA extraction kits, and other test kits.
