PR1MA PBS [Phosphate Buffered Saline]

 

Common Name: Phosphate Buffered Saline
CAS Number: 7647-14-5; 7447-40-7; 7558-79-4; 7778-77-0
Solubility: Water
Storage Temp: Room Temperature

 

PBS, 100 mL Tablets refer to pre-weighed tablets that are used to prepare a specific volume of PBS (Phosphate Buffered Saline) solution. 

PBS is a widely used buffer solution in biological and biochemical research. PBS serves as a versatile buffer for various applications, including cell culture, immunohistochemistry, protein and nucleic acid research, and diagnostic assays. It helps maintain a stable pH and osmolarity, providing optimal conditions for biological reactions and preserving the integrity of cells and biomolecules. 

Each tablet contains pre-determined amounts of sodium chloride, sodium phosphate dibasic, and potassium phosphate monobasic. When dissolved in distilled water or a suitable solvent, the tablet dissolves, releasing the components, and instantly forms a ready-to-use PBS solution with a total volume of 100 mL.

These tablets ensure accurate and consistent preparation of PBS, eliminating the need for weighing and measuring individual components. They are designed to simplify the process and save time in laboratory workflows.

PR1MA Rapid Coomassie Stain

Chemical Formula: C5H10O5

Solubility: Water

Storage Temp: Room Temperature

This unique Coomassie Blue based formulation features a special dye that is absorbed by protein bands instead of the gel matrix. This eliminates the need for destaining and offers enhanced sensitivity and sharper resolution of bands. Protein bands can be detected within 10 minutes. Maximum intensification may require incubation up to 40 minutes. Offers greater convenience and sensitivity than conventional stains. Compatible with silver staining. Rapid Coomassie stain uses a simple two-step procedure. Stain is designed to detect as little as 7.9ng of protein within one hour of electrophoresis.

Supplied as 20X concentrated solution.

Shelf life is approximately 18 months at room temperature.

Shipping Weight: 0.3 lbs

Shipping Dimensions: 2.00 x 4.00 x 2.00
  • Appearance: Dark Blue Color
  • Concentration: 20X
  • Solubility: Suitable for use in staining protein in polyacrylamide gels
