Suitable for use as a cGMP chemical in pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and products.

MES Hydrate is a zwitterionic buffer that is not absorbed through cell membranes and is virtually transparent in UV light. MES is a buffering agent used in many biological and biochemical applications. It is also used as a running buffer for denaturing gel electrophoresis. The characteristics of low UV absorptivity, minimal reactivity, stable pH and solubility in water allow MES Hydrate to be a Good’s buffer.
