Borate Buffer (0.5 M, pH 8.5)

The Borate Buffer is an isotonic buffer essential for maintaining stable pH levels in biochemical processes. Typically operating within a pH range of 8.0 to 9.5, this buffer supports several applications including enzymatic assays, protein purification, as a DNA electrophoresis buffer, in coating procedures, and for coupling proteins. The Borate Buffer is also used as plant tissue culture media, and has a strong antimicrobial effect.
