Product Overview
Tricine (N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methylglycine) is a high-purity buffering agent widely used in molecular biology for its exceptional buffering capacity in the pH range of 7.4–8.8. This 99.0% pure Tricine is specifically formulated for applications requiring precise pH stability, such as SDS-PAGE and protein purification. Its low UV absorbance and minimal interference with biochemical reactions make it a preferred choice for researchers. The molecular biology grade ensures compatibility with sensitive lab procedures, reducing contamination risks. Tricine’s non-toxic nature and solubility in water further enhance its versatility in lab settings. Manufactured under stringent quality control, this product guarantees reliable performance for critical experiments.
