N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, often referred to as "BES". The storage conditions of this substance are quite exquisite, and the following numbers should be observed:
First, temperature is very important. It should be stored in a cool place, usually 2-8 ° C. If the temperature is too high, the molecular activity may change, causing its chemical properties to be unstable. Just like the extreme heat in summer, everything is perishable. This substance is also disturbed by temperature. Under high temperature or accelerated decomposition and deterioration, it loses its original efficacy.
Second, the influence of humidity should not be underestimated. It should be placed in a dry place to avoid moisture. Because moisture can easily lead to deliquescence, and then damage the structure. It is like a place where it has been raining for a long time. Objects are prone to mildew. After the BES is damp, it may change its properties and affect the use.
Third, light exposure must also be prevented. It should be stored in a dark environment and stored in a brown bottle or opaque container. Light may promote photochemical reactions to cause changes in the composition. Like something exposed to the hot sun, it is easy to fade and deform. When the BES is exposed to light, its stability will also be affected.
Fourth, the package must be sealed. To prevent excessive contact with the air, oxygen, carbon dioxide, etc. in the air, or react with it. Like a closed room, it can resist external disturbance. Sealed packaging can protect the BES from the erosion of air components and ensure its quality.
The preservation of N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid requires low temperature, dry, dark and sealed conditions to ensure long-term stability of its quality and performance for scientific research, experiments, etc.

N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, often known by its abbreviation HEPES, is a zwitterion buffer commonly used in biochemical research. This substance is critical to the adjustment range of pH and is of great significance in biochemical experiments.
The pH adjustment range applicable to HEPES is roughly between 6.8 and 8.2. Within this range, HEPES can effectively maintain the pH of the solution by virtue of its own acid-base balance characteristics, making it relatively stable and not susceptible to major changes due to external factors.
In many biological and biochemical experiments, the activity of enzymes, the stability of proteins, and the normal physiological function of cells are closely related to the pH value of the environment in which they are located. The specific pH adjustment range of HEPES can conform to the suitable pH conditions for chemical reactions in many organisms. For example, in the process of cell culture, the growth and metabolism of cells have strict requirements on the pH of the environment, so HEPES can create and maintain a suitable microenvironment to ensure the normal growth and proliferation of cells. For example, some enzymatic reactions need to be carried out efficiently within a specific pH range. The stable pH environment provided by HEPES helps the enzyme to give full play to its catalytic activity and make the reaction proceed smoothly. This range of characteristics provides a solid and reliable guarantee for relevant scientific research work, enabling researchers to more accurately simulate the internal environment of organisms, and then deeply explore the mysteries of life processes.

To prepare a suitable concentration of N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid solution, the following method should be followed.
All medicines used in Shudangming must be pure. Measure an appropriate amount of N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid powder, depending on the concentration and volume of the solution to be prepared. If you want to make a solution of a certain volume and a specific concentration, you can calculate the amount of solute required according to the formula "amount of solute substance = solution concentration × solution volume", and then calculate the quality of the required powder according to its molar mass.
Place the measured powder in a clean container, such as a beaker. Slowly add an appropriate amount of solvent, usually deionized water. When adding water, you can gently stir the glass rod to help it dissolve. The stirring process must be gentle to avoid the solution splashing out.
The dissolution process may have endothermic or exothermic phenomena due to the nature of the drug. In this case, you need to wait for the solution temperature to return to room temperature before continuing to operate.
Then, transfer the initially dissolved solution to the volumetric flask. When transferring, use a glass rod to drain to ensure that the solution is all transferred and there is no wall-hanging residue. Wash the beaker and glass rod with a small amount of deionized water several times, and the lotion is also injected into the volumetric flask to ensure no loss of solute. After
, add water to the volumetric bottle to close to the scale line, and use a rubber head dropper to add water dropwise until the concave liquid level of the solution is tangent to the scale line. This step requires careful operation, looking straight at the scale line to ensure that the solution volume is accurate.
Cover the volumetric bottle stopper and shake it upside down repeatedly to make the solution uniform throughout the concentration. In this way, a suitable concentration of N, N-bis (hydroxyethyl) -2-aminoethanesulfonic acid solution is prepared. The whole operation process needs to be rigorous and meticulous to achieve the purpose of accurate preparation.
