MES hydrate
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
MES (2-Morpholinoethanesulphonic acid) hydrate is a kind of amphoteric ion buffer, the buffer capacity ranging pH 5.5-7.0. As a Good's buffer, MES hydrate is widely used in biochemistry and molecular biology experiments, such as cell culture, enzyme activity determination, electrophoresis and protein studies.

Biological Activity
MES hydrate is a zwitterionic buffer and can provide effective buffering capacity at around pH 6.15. The pKa value of MES hydrate changes with temperature, so the change of its pKa value needs to be considered when using it at different temperatures[1].
MES hydrate shows good buffering properties in biological experiments, exhibits poor affinity with metal ions (binding constants at 20 °C and 0.1 M: Mg2+, 0.8; Ca2+, 0.8; Mn2+, 1.7), thereby can be used in studies involving metal ions[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
