Description

HEPES, a nonvolatile zwitterionic chemical buffering agent, is broadly applied in cell culture. HEPES is effective at pH 6.8 to 8.2. HEPES is also a potent inducer of lysosome biogenesis[1][2][3].

In Vitro

HEPES maintains superhydrophilicity of titanium for at least 3 months and resulted in a continuous retention of bioactivity and osteoconductivity[1].
HEPES drives lysosome biogenesis, affects MiT/TFE cytoplasmic-nuclear distribution, disrupts global cellular transcriptional profiles, resulting the activation of a MiT/TFE-dependent lysosomal-autophagic gene network in cultured RAW264.7 cells[3].

In Vivo:

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
