---I changed some of the information, which I found out wrong (source : Merck Index 13th edition). I don't know about the rest of the article.


I think that under the label "Buffering Features" talks too much about EDTA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.92.44.74 (talk) 12:27, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

The article mentioned Tris being toxic to mammalian cells. Is there any citation to this claim? - X 129.78.64.101 (talk) 00:43, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

If anyone ever wants to construct an infobox, here are the particulars. savidan(talk) (e@) 09:02, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

(1) CAS No: 77-86-1; MF: (HOCH2)3CNH2; MW: 121.13624; BP(°C): 219-220(p=10 torr)

(2) Specification of Tris:

Appearance: white crystal

Content: ≥99.9%

Melting point: 168-171℃

Loss on drying: ≤0.5%

ASH: ≤0.05%

PH (0.1mol/L, 25℃):10.0-10.8

Insoluble in water: ≤0.03%

ABS (260nm): ≤0.2

Heavy metals: ≤5PPM

Fe: ≤5PPM

SO42+: ≤5PPM

Cl: ≤5PPM

Some of the analysis information you have here is only going to be specific to that lot. They aren't innate properties of tris itself. Benzene 15:10, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Systematic name

The two alternative systematic names: 2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol or 2-nitro-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol describe quite different compounds. I would suggest that the latter (2-nitro) be deleted. Dr Thermo 15:23, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
