A 10X Concentrated solution of Tris Buffered Saline with Tween® 20 with a concentration of 100mM Tris.HCl, 150mM NaCl, 0.5% Tween® 20 at pH7.5. The 1X Concentration is 10mM Tris.HCl, 15mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween® 20 at pH7.5. A dry buffer pack format is also avaialble to produce 1L of 1X TBST.
TBST is commonly used as a wash solution for Western blot membranes and microtiter plate wells in ELISA assays. The Tris Buffered Saline with Tween® 20 is an optimal formulation of pH stabilizers, salts and detergents designed to effectively remove excess material from membranes and microtiter plate wells without disrupting the antigen/antibody binding reaction. By maintaining the proper buffering environment, unbound components can be washed away without suppressing antigen-antibody binding interactions, thereby reducing nonspecific background and increasing the specific signal.
