Trizma is used in the formulation of buffer solutions in the pH range between 7.5 and 8.5. Tris buffer solutions are widely used in cell and molecular biology for processes such as protein and nucleic acid extraction and purification. Trizma based buffers are also in column chromatography and in gel electrophoresis. Trizma acetate is used to make Tris acetic acid buffers that are used as diluents for various assays and as an electrophoresis running buffers.
Other Notes
Recommended buffer for maximum sensitivity of ATP assays with firefly luciferase; Assay of glutamate binding.

[3H]L-glutamic acid binding to microfuge tubes and glass was investigated in four buffers. Background binding to these materials was negligible, but was increased by centrifugation or suction in Tris-HCl and Tris-citrate buffer. This binding was much less or eliminated when
Oligonucleotide (T30695) modified gold nanoparticles (T30695-Au NPs) have been prepared and employed for quantification of lead ions (Pb(2+)) in blood. The detection of Pb(2+) ions is through the formation of Au-Pb alloys and oligonucleotide-Pb(2+) complexes that catalyze the H(2)O(2)-mediated oxidation

Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) is one of the most powerful tools used for protein analysis. We describe the use of Tris-acetate buffer and 3-15% polyacrylamide gradient gels to simultaneously separate proteins in the mass range of 10-500 kDa. We show
RNA-based applications requiring high-quality, non-degraded RNA are a foundational element of many research studies. As such, it is paramount that the integrity of experimental RNA is validated prior to cDNA synthesis or other downstream applications. In the absence of expensive
To separate and analyze giant and small proteins in the same electrophoresis gel, we have used a 3-15% polyacrylamide gradient gel containing 2.6% of the crosslinker bisacrylamide and 0.2 M of Tris-acetate buffer (pH 7.0). Samples were prepared in a
