20X Sodium Borate Buffer (SB Buffer)

Reagents

Concentrations

Procedure

Per liter

  1. Dissolve 38.14 g Sodium tetraborate decahydrate in 800 mL of pure nuclease free water
  2. Bring volume to 1 L with pure nuclease free water

Comments

May want to confirm that this produces a 20X solution with a pH of 8.0 but probably isn’t necessary
