CHES sodium salt is a zwitterionic buffering agent frequently employed in biochemical and biophysical research. Its buffering capacity in the mid-range pH spectrum makes it an ideal candidate for stabilizing the pH of solutions, especially in studies that necessitate precise pH control. CHES sodium salt is particularly valuable in enzyme kinetics research, where maintaining a constant pH is for accurate activity measurements. It is also used in the crystallization of proteins and nucleic acids, where the pH can significantly affect the solubility and structure of the biomolecules. Furthermore, its role in electrophoresis experiments is noteworthy, as it contributes to the resolution of macromolecules under varying pH conditions. The sodium salt form enhances the solubility of CHES in aqueous solutions, which is advantageous in a multitude of experimental protocols.
