Description
HEPES Sodium Salt (HEPES-Na) is the sodium salt form of HEPES, offering improved solubility and ease of buffer preparation while retaining the excellent buffering characteristics of the parent compound. It is commonly used for rapid formulation of physiological buffers in molecular biology, biochemistry, and cell culture applications.
Proteogenixx’s HEPES-Na Buffer Grade ensures high purity and consistent performance, enabling accurate pH adjustment with minimal need for strong acids or bases. This makes HEPES-Na especially convenient for preparing ready-to-use buffers and media formulations, reducing preparation time and experimental variability.
HEPES-Na is widely utilized in cell culture media, protein assays, and biochemical reactions where stable pH control and reproducibility are essential.
Storage: Store tightly sealed at room temperature in a dry environment to maintain stability.
