1M solution (238.3 g/L HEPES) in purified water. Sterile filtered.
HEPES is widely used in cell culture , tissue culture, protein purification and extraction, immunoprecipitation, cell lysis, live cell imaging and other biological/biochemical research. Compared with other buffers such as PBS (phosphate buffered saline) and TRIS, HEPES has higher stability in maintaining the pH values of cell culture media.
