N-2-Hydroxyethylpiperazine-N′-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid

Description:
N-2-Hydroxyethylpiperazine-N′-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid, commonly referred to as HEPS, is a zwitterionic buffer widely used in biological and biochemical research. It is characterized by its ability to maintain a stable pH in aqueous solutions, making it particularly useful in various laboratory applications, including cell culture and enzyme assays. HEPS has a pKa value that allows it to effectively buffer physiological pH ranges, typically around neutral pH. The compound is soluble in water, which enhances its utility in biological systems. Its structure features a piperazine ring, which contributes to its stability and buffering capacity. Additionally, the presence of hydroxyethyl and hydroxypropanesulfonic acid groups provides it with unique properties that facilitate interactions with biomolecules. Due to its low toxicity and compatibility with biological systems, HEPS is favored in experiments involving living cells and proteins. Overall, its characteristics make it an essential tool in the fields of biochemistry and molecular biology.
