MES Sodium Salt

MES (2-(n-Morpholino)-ethanesulfonic acid) Sodium Salt is a biological buffer mainly used in plant cell culture. MES (2-(n-Morpholino)-ethanesulfonic acid) is considered a "Good's Buffer" because it has a pKa value near physiological pH, it is not absorbed through cell membranes, and it is essentially transparent to UV light. MES (2-(n-Morpholino)-ethanesulfonic acid) Sodium Salt acts as a buffering agent used in biological and biochemical research including plant cell culture.
