Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

My PBS, PH 7.4 (Cat. No. 10010072) was accidentally frozen. Can I still use it?

This product should be stored at 2-8 degrees C and should not be frozen. The biggest issue with accidentally freezing this product is its solubility. If this product was accidentally frozen, we recommend placing it in a 2-8 degree environment and allowing it to slowly thaw overnight. If the product is fully thawed and shows no signs of precipitation, then it should still be usable, but we cannot guarantee effectiveness.

Are your PBS products tested for endotoxin levels?

Our PBS, pH 7.2 and PBS, pH 7.4 products are tested for endotoxin and the endotoxin levels are shown on the Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for the particular lot number of the product.

Are your PBS products sterile and suitable for cell culture?

We offer PBS - Phosphate-Buffered Saline (10X) pH 7.4, RNase-free (Cat. Nos. AM9624 and AM9625), which is molecular biology grade and is certified to be RNase-free. However, it is not sterile and hence is not cell culture-grade.

All our other PBS products (Cat. Nos. 70011xxx, 10010xxx, 70013xxx, 20012xxx) are filter-sterilized using a 0.1 µm filter and are cell culture grade (ready to use directly on cells). However, they are not tested for nuclease activity.

Are your PBS products DNase- and RNase-free?

We offer PBS - Phosphate-Buffered Saline (10X) pH 7.4, RNase-free (Cat. Nos. AM9624 and AM9625) that is molecular biology grade and is certified to be RNase-free. Our other PBS products are made with distilled water and are filter-sterilized, but are not tested for RNase and DNase activity.
