Multi purpose buffer used in biological research
Featured Products
HEPES (CAS 7365-45-9) is a zwitterionic sulfonic acid buffer commonly utilized in biomedical research due to its capacity to maintain physiological pH stability within a buffering range of approximately pH 6.8 to 8.2. Mechanistically, HEPES modulates intracellular pH balance, thereby promoting lysosomal biogenesis and supporting associated cellular processes. It is routinely employed in cell culture systems to precisely regulate environmental conditions and is relevant in biochemical assays involving specific cellular signaling pathways and intracellular pH-dependent phenomena.
