Preparation of Buffer for WB
Source: Elabscience®Published: Jun 29,2017
1.0 mol/L Tris•HCl(pH6.8)
Tris |
30.28 g |
Ultrapure water |
200 mL |
Dissolve the Tris in the ultrapure water, and then add concentrated HCl to adjust the pH to be 6.8. Add ultrapure water until the total volume is 250 mL. Store the prepared buffer at room temperature after high temperature sterilization.
1.5 mol/L Tris•HCl(pH8.8)
Tris |
45.43 g |
Ultrapure water |
200 mL |
Dissolve the Tris in the ultrapure water, and then add concentrated HCl to adjust the pH to be 8.8. Add ultrapure water until the total volume is 250mL. Store the prepared buffer at room temperature after high temperature sterilization.
10% SDS
Dissolve 10g SDS in 100 mL of distilled water by incubating in 50℃ water bath, and store the prepared buffer at room temperature. If there is any precipitate during the long time storage, the buffer can still be used after dissolution by water bath.
10% Ammonium persulfate(APS)
Dissolve 0.1g ammonium persulfate in 1.0 mL of ultrapure water, and then store the prepared buffer at 4℃ for 1 week (-20℃ for long time storage).
30% Acrylamide
Acrylamide |
29 g |
N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide |
1 g |
Dissolve the acrylamide and N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide in 50 mL water. Then add distilled water until the total volume is 100 mL. Store the prepared buffer at room temperature in brown bottle.
10× PBS (2L)
NaCl |
160 g |
KCl |
4 g |
Na2HPO4·12H2O |
22.9 g |
KH2PO4 |
4 g |
Distilled water |
1 L |
Mix all of the substances above homogeneously and then add NaOH to adjust the pH to be 7.4. Add distilled water until the total volume is 2L. Store the buffer at room temperature.
Reduced 5×SDS (Loading Buffer)
0.5 mol/L Tris•HCl (pH6.8) |
2.5 mL |
Dithiothreitol (DTT) |
0.39 g |
SDS |
0.5 g |
Bromophenol Blue |
0.025 g |
Glycerin |
2.5 mL |
Mix all of the substances above homogeneously, and then aliquot the buffer and respectively. Store them in 1.5 mL centrifugal tubes at 4℃ for weeks(-20℃ for long time storage).
Electrophoretic Buffer
Tris |
3.03g |
Glycine |
18.77g |
SDS |
1g |
Add distilled water to dissolve the substances above until the total volume is 1000 mL. Store the buffer at room temperature. The prepared solution can be repeatedly used for 3 to 5 times.
Transfer Buffer
1×Transfer Buffer:
Glycine |
11.25 g |
Tris |
2.375 g |
SDS |
0.375 g |
Methanol |
200 mL |
Add distilled water to dissolve the substances above until the total volume is 1000 mL. Store the buffer at 4℃. The prepared solution can be repeatedly used for 3 to 5 times.
TBS Buffer
NaCl |
8.5 g |
Tris |
1.2 g |
Add distilled water to dissolve the NaCl and Tris, and adjust the pH to be 7.4. Add distilled water until the total volume is 1000mL. Store the buffer at room temperature.
Eluant TBST Solution
Mix 1000 mL of TBS solution with 1 mL of Tween-20, then homogeneously mix the buffer. Prepare the buffer before when needed.
Blocking Buffer(TBST buffer with 5% skimmed milk)
Skimmed milk |
5 g |
TBST |
100 mL |
Dissolve the skimmed milk in TBST. The prepared TBST buffer can be used for only one time.
