TAPS Sodium salt CAS:70331-82-7
Buffering agent: TAPS-Na is used to control and maintain the pH of solutions, providing a stable environment for biological reactions, enzyme assays, and other laboratory experiments.
Cell culture: TAPS-Na is widely used in cell culture media to maintain a consistent pH, as it is effective in the physiological pH range (pH 7.2-7.8). It ensures optimum conditions for cell growth and viability.
Protein research: TAPS-Na is used in various protein studies, such as protein purification, protein crystallization, and enzymatic assays. Its buffering capacity helps maintain the pH at which proteins are stable.
Electrophoresis: TAPS-Na is commonly used as a buffering agent in electrophoresis techniques such as SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and isoelectric focusing. It helps maintain appropriate pH conditions for separation and migration of biomolecules.
Chemical synthesis: TAPS-Na is used as a pH regulator in chemical synthesis reactions, particularly those requiring a specific pH range for optimal yields or selectivity.
Pharmaceutical formulations: TAPS-Na is utilized in the formulation of certain pharmaceuticals, including injections, oral medications, and topical preparations. It helps maintain a desired pH and stability of the active ingredients.
