Product Information
Description: MES, free acid is a commonly used buffer. MES (2-Morpholinoethanesulphonic acid) is a buffering agent in biology and biochemistry, the buffer capacity ranging pH 5.5-7.0. MES is broadly used to regulate pH value for plants culture medium, reagent solution, and physiological experiments.
   
Stability and Solubility Advice: Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide.
We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details.
