MOPS (3- (N-morpholino)propanesulfonic acid) is a buffer introduced in the 1960s, one of the twenty Good's buffers. It is a structural analog to MES, [1] and like MES, its structure contains a morpholine ring. HEPES is a similar pH buffering compound that contains a piperazine ring.

Order high-quality MOPS buffer from Sigma-Aldrich, ideal for use in electrophoresis, cell biology, and biochemical research within the pH range of 6.5-7.9.

MOPS Buffer (10X) (0.2 M, pH 7) preparation guide and recipe. Recipe can be automatically scaled by entering desired final volume. MOPS buffer is often used in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

MOPS (Free acid, C7H15NO4S, Molecular weight: 209.26) is a zwitterionic buffer, useful for several cell and molecular biology applications due to its pH range between 6.5 – 7.9.

MOPS buffer, also referred to as 3- (N-Morpholino) propanesulfonic acid or 4-Morpholinepropanesulfonic acid, is a zwitterionic biological buffering reagent used widely in biochemical and biological studies.

MOPS is often used in buffered culture media for bacteria, yeast, and mammalian cells. MOPS is regarded as an excellent buffer for use in separating RNA in agarose gels.

For 10x solution: Dissolve 41.8 g of MOPS in 700 ml of sterile Diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC)-treated H 2 O. Adjust the pH to 7.0 with 2 N NaOH. Add 20 ml of Diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC)-treated 1 M sodium acetate and 20 ml of Diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC)-treated 0.5 …

MOPS is a zwitterionic physiological buffer, with pH range 6.5 – 7.9. MOPS-containing electrophoresis buffer is suitable for RNA denaturing Agarose Gel Electrophoresis.

Good et al., developed these buffers to meet the following criteria: The pKa of MOPS (7.2) is closer to physiological pH than that of MES (6.1), and thus MOPS may be more suitable as a physiologically relevant buffer. For Laboratory Use Only. Not for drug, household or other uses.

Bring the pH to 7.0 with NaOH (or if the MOPS sodium salt is used, then use glacial acetic acid to adjust the pH). Do not autoclave. Store in the dark, covered with foil, at room temperature. The …
