Product Description
MES monohydrate buffer is a high-purity biochemical reagent widely used in molecular biology for maintaining stable pH conditions. This lab-grade buffer, also known as 2-morpholineethanesulfonic acid, is essential for experiments requiring precise pH control between 5.5 and 6.7. Whether you’re working on protein purification, cell culture, or enzymatic assays, this MES buffer solution ensures reliable performance.
At eqipped, we provide MES monohydrate in convenient pack sizes of 25g and 100g, making it suitable for both small-scale research and bulk laboratory use. The 99% purity guarantees minimal interference in sensitive applications, while its non-toxic and non-reactive properties make it safe for routine lab procedures.
Researchers and students often rely on MES buffer for its excellent solubility and compatibility with biological systems. Unlike other buffers, it doesn’t chelate metal ions, making it ideal for experiments involving metalloproteins or enzyme studies. Its low UV absorbance also ensures it won’t interfere with spectrophotometric measurements.

FAQs
What is the ideal pH range for MES buffer?
MES buffer is most effective between pH 5.5 and 6.7, making it suitable for slightly acidic biological systems.
Can I use MES monohydrate for cell culture?
Yes, MES is commonly used in cell culture media to maintain stable pH conditions for optimal cell growth.
How do I prepare a 100mM MES buffer solution?
Dissolve 1.95g of MES monohydrate in 100ml of deionized water, then adjust the pH with NaOH or HCl as needed.
Is MES buffer compatible with metal ions?
Unlike some buffers, MES doesn’t chelate metal ions, making it ideal for experiments involving metalloproteins.
What’s the shelf life of MES monohydrate powder?
When stored properly in a cool, dry place, MES monohydrate has a shelf life of 2-3 years.
