General description
MES is one of the so-called “Good” buffers developed for biological applications. This product is BioPerformance certified (suitable for electrophoresis, tissue culture, and molecular biology applications. A buffer using MES free acid can be prepared by titrating the free acid with sodium hydroxide to the desired pH (pKa=±1). Alternatively, volumes of equimolar solutions of MES free acid and MES sodium can be mixed to attain the desired pH. Standard mixing tables using stock solutions to prepare a buffer of a given pH have been published.
Application
MES sodium salt has been used as a coupling buffer during the coupling of MAbs onto amine-reactive sensors. It has also been used as a component of germination medium and shoot induction medium during in vitro plant regeneration.
