TRICINE N TRIS(HYDROXYMETHYL METHYL GLYCINE

Description

Tricine is a commonly used electrophoresis buffer and is also used for the resuspension of cell pellets. It has a lower negative charge than glycine, allowing it to migrate faster. In addition, its high ionic strength causes more ion movement and less protein movement.

Application
Application

Tricine gels are suitable in isolating hydrophobic proteins from 2D gel for mass spectrophotometric analysis. It is also helpful to isolate membrane protein complexes from biological membranes. When urea is added in stacking gel it can easily separate two different proteins of the same molecular weight
