Purpose

  • Tris-Cl is a buffering agent (made from Tris base and HCl)
  • We use it as a stock solution for Low TE

Info

  • tris [hydroxymethyl] amino methane (C4H11NO3, 2-Amino-2-hydroxymethyl-propane-1,3-diol)
  • MW = 157.56 g/mol (MW = molecular weight, same as formula weight, FW)

Protocol

0.5M Tris-Cl, pH 8.0

  • [math]\displaystyle{ 500 mL \bullet \frac{0.5 mol}{L}\ \bullet \frac{L}{1000 mL}\ \bullet \frac{157.56 g}{mol}\ = 39.39 g }[/math]
  • to make \tfrac{1}{2} liter of 0.5M Tris-Cl, pH 8.0:
  1. In 1 L beaker, mix 39.39 g Tris-Cl in 400 mL H2O
  2. Put beaker on hotplate with stirbar until dissolved
  3. Using concentrated aqueous HCl to adjust to pH 8.0
  4. Add H2O to bring volume to 500 mL
  5. Autoclave solution, store at room temperature

1M Tris-Cl, pH 8.0

  • [math]\displaystyle{ 500 mL \bullet \frac{1 mol}{L}\ \bullet \frac{L}{1000 mL}\ \bullet \frac{157.56 g}{mol}\ = 78.78 g }[/math]
  • to make \tfrac{1}{2} liter of 1M Tris-Cl, pH 8.0:
  1. In 1 L beaker, mix 78.78 g Tris-Cl in 400 mL H2O
  2. Put beaker on hotplate with stirbar until dissolved
  3. Using concentrated aqueous HCl to adjust to pH 8.0
  4. Add H2O to bring volume to 500 mL
  5. Autoclave solution, store at room temperature
