Phosphate Buffered Saline Tablets (PBS) are a balanced salt mixture for easy PBS buffer preparation for a variety of applications including reagent preparation, diluting cells for flow cytometry and cell culture reagent.
- No need for weighing and mixing chemicals
- Simply dissolve PBS tablets into water
- One tablet dissolved in 100 mL water yields buffer containing 0.01M phosphate, 0.0027M KCl and 0.137M NaCl, pH ~7.4 at 25°C
