1. Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane CAS 77-86-1, commonly known as Tris, is widely used as a buffering agent in biochemistry and molecular biology, helping maintain stable pH levels in solutions for experiments like DNA/RNA isolation, protein electrophoresis, and cell culture.
2. Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane also serves as a component in pharmaceutical formulations, such as eye drops and injectable solutions, due to its ability to regulate pH.
3. Additionally, Tris CAS 77-86-1 is used in cosmetic products and as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of various compounds, including surfactants and plastics.
Packed in 25 kg per drum or based on customers' requirements.
1. Container and Sealing: Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane CAS 77-86-1 store in a tightly closed, airtight container (e.g., glass or plastic) to prevent absorption of moisture from the air, as Tris is hygroscopic (tends to attract water).
2. Environmental Conditions: Keep Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Room temperature (15–30°C) is generally suitable, but avoiding extreme temperatures helps maintain its integrity.
3. Separation: Store Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane CAS 77-86-1 separately from strong oxidizing agents, acids, and bases to prevent chemical reactions that could degrade the compound or produce hazardous byproducts.
4. Labeling: Clearly label the container with the chemical name, hazard information (if applicable), and expiration date (if noted) to ensure proper identification and handling.
