Product Description
The Tris Buffered Saline (TBS) is an isotonic non-toxic buffer solution used commonly in biochemical applications. Tris maintains a stable pH range typically between 7.4 to 8.0 while NaCl regulates osmotic balance via its elected concentration. This TBS Solution is formulated at a 20X concentration, and is useful for washing in Western Blotting.
