Product description

Carbonate bi-carbonate buffer is used as coating buffer on 
plates or tubes. Medicago’s Carbonate bi-carbonate buffer is specifically developed for protein-coating procedures on 
mictrotiter plates and plastic tubes for RIA and EIA techniques. The buffer is supplied in two formulations, one of which contains 0.05 % sodium azide as preservative.

The buffer is supplied as exactly pre-weighed tablets giving 100 ml of 0.05 M sodium carbonate-bicarbonate buffer with pH 9.6 at 25 °C when dissolved in deionized water.

Applications

• Protein coating on microtiter plates and plastic tubes.

Directions for use

Deposit one tablet in a laboratory flask or beaker placed on a magnetic stirrer. Add 50 ml of deionized water and stir the solution for a few minutes. Adjust the water up to 100 ml, stir until full dissolution and the buffer is ready to use.
