What is TRIS-HCl?

TRIS-HCl, or Tris Hydrochloride (CAS No.: 1185-53-1) is a zwitterionic biological buffer, in the form of white crystalline solid under room temperature. TRIS-HCl has high water solubility, easily dissolved in water with clear and colorless appearance of its aqueous solution. As a pH buffering agent, TRIS-HCl is extensively applied in molecular biological and biochemical researches, such as electrophoresis, DNA extraction, etc., with an effective pH range between 7.0 and 9.2, also the typical physiological pH levels of most living organisms.

 

How to store TRIS-HCl?

Since TRIS-HCl powder is very hydrophilic, it is recommended to keep the powder form of TRIS-HCl in a properly sealed container and store it at room temperature, in a dry and ventilated place to keep away from moisture. If formulated into a solution, it should be noted that the pH value of the solution itself would change with the ambient temperature fluctuations.
