Product Overview
TAPSO (3-[N-Tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid) is a high-purity zwitterionic buffer widely used in biochemical and molecular biology applications. Known for its excellent buffering capacity in the pH range of 7.0–8.2, TAPSO maintains stable pH levels, making it ideal for sensitive experiments. This lab-grade buffer is highly soluble in water, non-toxic, and chemically stable, ensuring reliable performance in critical research applications. Its low metal chelation properties minimize interference in enzymatic reactions, while its compatibility with biological systems ensures minimal cellular toxicity. Whether used in protein purification, cell culture, or enzymatic assays, TAPSO provides consistent results, making it a preferred choice for researchers demanding precision. The powder form allows for flexible preparation of solutions at desired concentrations, catering to diverse experimental needs.
