Product Overview

Biochemazone 10X TBST BZ226 is a ten-times concentrated Tris-buffered saline with Tween 20, the standard wash buffer for Western blotting. Diluted to 1X, it removes unbound primary and secondary antibodies from nitrocellulose and PVDF membranes to give clean blots with low background.

Tris-HCl holds the pH at 7.4, sodium chloride provides physiological ionic strength, and the non-ionic detergent Tween 20 lifts loosely bound protein without disturbing specific antibody–antigen binding. TBST is phosphate-free, which makes it the preferred wash buffer for phospho-specific antibodies and alkaline phosphatase (AP) detection. The concentrate is filtered through a 0.2 µm membrane.

Each batch is prepared with ISO 3696 compliant high-purity water under Biochemazone’s ISO 9001 / GMP quality system.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make 1X TBST from BZ226?

Mix 100 mL of BZ226 with 900 mL of high-purity water. The 1X buffer contains 50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl and 0.1% Tween 20 at pH 7.4.

Should I use TBST or PBST for Western blots?

Both work for most antibodies. TBST is preferred for phospho-specific antibodies and alkaline phosphatase detection because phosphate can interfere. PBST (BZ219) is a common choice for general and ELISA washing.

Can I make blocking buffer with TBST?

Yes. Dilute to 1X, then add 5% non-fat dry milk or 3–5% BSA to make blocking buffer or antibody diluent.

How many washes are recommended?

A typical protocol uses three washes of 5–10 minutes with 1X TBST after each antibody incubation, with gentle shaking.

How should 10X TBST be stored?

Store at 2–30 °C with the cap tightly closed. Unopened bottles have a 1-year shelf life and ship at room temperature.
