Tris(Hydroxymethyl) Aminomethane (TRIS) buffer solution is a biological reagent, which is a buffer solution commonly used in biological preparation and medical preparation. It is commonly used in: gel electrophoresis buffer, such as TAE or TBE; preparation of Laemmli buffer; preparing running buffer and loading buffer together with glycine and SDS; binding buffer and an eluent in anion exchange chromatography; RNA hybridization and DNA cleavage. Below we will introduce you the ricipes of buffers for RNA experiments with TRIS.
