Biological Activity

MES is a zwitterionic buffering agent that belongs to Good's buffers, with an effective buffering capacity ranging from pHto. By maintaining stable hydrogen ion concentrations in biological media and reagent solutions, MES prevents pH fluctuations, protecting protein structure and enzymatic activity. Consequently, it is broadly utilized to regulate pH in plant cell culture media, physiological solutions, and biochemical assays to maintain cellular homeostasis.
