General description

CHES (2-(N-cyclohexylamino)ethanesulphonic acid) is regarded as Good′s buffers for its self-buffering and biocompatible feature. It is used in protein stabilization and does not interact with metals.

Application

CHES has been used:
  • as a buffer in mannanase activity assay of antarctic fungal isolates
  • as a buffer for DNA digestion and labeling of 2′-deoxyadenosine 3′-monophosphate
  • as a component of Wilson and Horne extraction buffer for characterization of rat plasma enzymes
