Buffering agent

A buffering agent is a weak acid or base used to maintain the acidity (pH) of a solution near a chosen value after the addition of another acid or base.

Cell culture

Cell culture is the process by which cells are grown under controlled conditions, generally outside their natural environment.

Cellular respiration

Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.

CHES (buffer)

N-Cyclohexyl-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, also known as CHES, is a buffering agent.

Dissociation constant

In chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, a dissociation constant (K_d) is a specific type of equilibrium constant that measures the propensity of a larger object to separate (dissociate) reversibly into smaller components, as when a complex falls apart into its component molecules, or when a salt splits up into its component ions.

Good's buffers

Good's buffers (also Good buffers) are twenty buffering agents for biochemical and biological research selected and described by Norman Good and colleagues during 1966–1980.

PH

In chemistry, pH is a logarithmic scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.

Phototoxicity

Phototoxicity, also called photoirritation, is a chemically induced skin irritation, requiring light, that does not involve the immune system.

Temperature

Temperature is a physical quantity expressing hot and cold.

Zwitterion

In chemistry, a zwitterion, formerly called a dipolar ion, is a molecule with two or more functional groups, of which at least one has a positive and one has a negative electrical charge and the net charge of the entire molecule is zero.
