8-5c PBE 94 pH 8.3, 25 mM Tris-acetic acid pH 5 Polybuffer 96 (30%) plus Polybuffer 74 (70%)-acetic acid 1:10 2.0 8.5 10.5
7-6 PBE 94 pH 7.4, 25 mM imidazole acetic acid pH 6 Polybuffer 96-acetic acid 1:13 3.0 7.0 10.0
7-5 PBE 94 pH 7.4, 25 mM imidazole-HCl pH 5 Polybuffer 74-HCl 1:8 2.5 11.5 14.0
7-4 PBE 94 pH 7.4, 25 mM imidazole-HCl pH 4 Polybuffer 74-HCl 1:8 2.5 11.5 14.0
6-5 PBE 94 pH 6.2, 25 mM histidine-HCl pH 5 Polybuffer 74-HCl 1:10 2.0 8.0 10.0
6-4 PBE 94 pH 6.2, 25 mM histidine-HCl pH 4 Polybuffer 74-HCl 1:8 2.0 7.0 9.0
5-4 PBE 94 pH 5.5, 25 mM piperazine-HCl pH 4 Polybuffer 74-HCl 1:10 3.0 9.0 12.0
For details on buffer preparation, see Purification of Proteins by Chromatofocusing (Mohammad 2010d).
aGradients ending at pH 9 are not recommended, because 9 is above the pH of Pharmalyte (pH 8-10.5).
bPBE 118 and Pharmalyte pH 8-10.5 also cover this range, as do PBE 94 and Polybuffer 96.
cMixing gives the best results. Polybuffer 74 works better than Polybuffer 96 when used alone.
