CHES is zwitterionic buffer useful in pH range 8.6 to 10.0.CHES is widely utilized as a buffer which is used for investigations on pH-dependent processes in enzymology. It has been shown to have an unusually high affinity for the iodoacetate binding site of liver alcohol dehydrogenase.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
