Product Description
CAS# 56-40-6
- For use in polyacrylamide buffer systems
Glycine is a neutral amino acid and is the primary component in polyacrylamide buffers. During the process of separation the glycine forms an electrical front which pulls the macromolecules along.
Glycine can be used to make a concentrated stock of buffer solutions.
