Mathies:Separation Buffer

10X TTE
10X Tris TAPS EDTA (TTE) solution contains:


 * 1) 500 mM Tris-base (Bio-Rad, P/N 1610719)


 * 1) 500 mM TAPS acid (Sigma, P/N T5130)


 * 1) 10 mM Na2EDTA (Sigma, P/N ED2SS)

To prepare 1 liter of 10X TTE:

1. Combine the following reagents in a 1-L beaker:

Tris - 60.55 g

TAPS acid - 121.65 g

Na2EDTA - 3.72 g

Deionized water - q.s. to l L

2. Mix well.

3. Check the pH of the 10X TTE.

The pH should be 8.3+/-0.3. If the pH is not in this range, then discard the buffer.

Store 10X TTE stock solution at 4 degree centigrate.
