1 M Potassium Phosphate Buffer, pH 7.2, is an aqueous phosphate buffer prepared with potassium salts and adjusted to pH 7.2. It provides stable pH control for biochemical procedures, including protein and nucleic acid workflows, sample preparation, equilibration and washing steps, and general laboratory dilutions.

Common uses include resuspension of cell pellets, washing of bacterial cultures such as E. coli, preparation of enzyme reaction mixtures where a neutral phosphate buffer is required, and buffer exchange by dialysis or desalting. The buffer can be diluted to desired working strengths with high-purity water.

Recommended handling includes mixing gently before use, diluting with compatible water to target molarity, and filtering if sterility is required by the application. Store tightly closed and protect from contamination.

  • 1M Potassium Phosphate Buffer
  • Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR): Used in PCR reactions to maintain optimal pH conditions for enzyme activity.

  • Gel Electrophoresis: Serves as a running buffer in SDS-PAGE and native PAGE, providing consistent pH for protein separation.

  • Protein Purification: Utilized in anion exchange chromatography to maintain a stable pH environment during protein elution.

  • Enzyme Assays: Provides a consistent pH for enzymatic reactions, ensuring accurate kinetic measurements.

  • Preparation of PBS and Working Buffers: Used as a 1M Potassium Phosphate Buffer stock to formulate PBS and other dilution/storage buffers at physiological pH.

  • Cell and Bacterial Culture: Buffers growth media for robust culture of Escherichia coli and other microbes at pH 7.2.

  • Immunoassays (ELISA/Western Blot): Stabilizes pH in wash, blocking, and antibody incubation buffers for reproducible signal.

  • Nucleic Acid Workflows: Maintains pH in DNA/RNA extraction, cleanup, and storage buffers to preserve integrity.

  • Spectrophotometric/Colorimetric Assays: Provides a stable pH matrix for assays such as Bradford, BCA, and enzyme activity measurements.

  • General Sample Handling: Used for sample dilution and storage to minimize pH-induced degradation of biomolecules.

  • pH: 7.2 ± 0.04
