Hi,
I'm not sure what type of lab you work in but in the neuropsychology lab we use the following recipe for perfusions for .1M Borate Buffer pH 9.5
95.5g of sodium tetraborate (fw = 381.37) for every 2500mL dH2O
Depending on the amount you want use the following equation to adjust the grams
95.5g/2500mL = Xg / XmL
Once you weigh out your grams and made sure your water is a pH of 7 through a pH test strip, put the stirrer into the erlenmeyer flask and add the water first while the stirring rod is already on. Then slowly add in the tetraborate crystals. Make sure that when you start the temp is approx 30 C. Once the water and crytals are in and the stirrer is moving then turn on the heat at a low temp and make sure the solution does not go over 45-50C otherwise is will boil out. It takes a long time for the crystals for dissolve so expect to leave it stirring for hours till dissolved, maybe even overnight. Refrigerate and use as needed.

What are the function of buffer?
the function of a buffer is to maintain the pH of the sample.
Why a buffer is used and the effects of a buffer on a solution?
A buffer is used to resist the change in pH when acid or alkali is added to a solution. This makes it a stable environment, eg. for enzymes. The buffer stops the pH of the solution changing too drastically.
What are the functions of buffer protein?
Maintaining pH
What buffer system operates in blood plasma Which memberof the buffer system resists a drop in pH Which resists a rise in pH?
Carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system Acids (H+) released into the blood by the body cells tend to lower the pH of the blood and cause it to be acidic. Alkali resists a rise in pH
The pH of 10x PBS buffer?
PBS pH usually ranges between 7.2 and 7.6.
How do you make 25 mM borate HCL buffer pH 8.8?
Making 25 mm Borate HCL buffer with a pH of 8.8 will require careful calculation and measurement. The pH can be easily adjusted after formulation. Temperature can impact the pH.
How do you prepare 0.01M sodium borate buffer?
Weigh the correct mass of boric acid corresponding to 0.01M adjust the pH using NaOH
Sodium acetate buffer?
can I make sodium acetate buffer 0.2M Ph=5 whit sodium acetate buffer 3m Ph=5 solution?
Why is water a good pH buffer?
Water is not a good pH buffer.
What happens to the buffer a pH capacity?
The buffer maintain the pH constant.
Is HCl a pH buffer?
No, it is not a buffer.
Is it possible to make a buffer of boric acid and borax?
Yes, this buffer works in the range 8-10 pH.
How do you make 0.04 M phosphate buffer with pH 6?

Will buffer pH help with odder in discharge?
will buffer ph help with odd in discharge
How to prepare phosphate buffer pH 5.8?
preparation of 5.8 ph phosphate buffer
What happens to the buffer solution pH 7 when acid is added?
When acid is added to a buffer solution at pH 7, the pH of the buffer solution will decrease. However, due to the presence of a conjugate base in the buffer solution, the buffer will resist the change in pH and try to maintain its original pH value. This is because the conjugate base will react with the acid and prevent a significant decrease in pH.
Why does the pH of an acetate buffer increases after dilution with water?
The pH of water is approximatly 7 (a neutral pH), and the acetate buffer has an acidic pH (less than 7) so when you add distilled water to the buffer the pH will increase.
