What is the difference between TAE buffer and TE buffer?

The main difference is in composition. In TE common Tris buffer is bring down to pH 8 with HCl and EDTA is involved but in TAE instead of Tris HCl in TE Tris-acetate buffer is used.


What is Tris HCl?

"Tris" is a chemical compound used as a buffer. The full name is tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane. Tris has the ability to absorb counter ions (+H and -OH) so as to help keep the solution that they are in at a stable pH level. When the pH of Tris is set using HCl (hydrochloric acid) the buffer is called Tris HCl.

What is the difference between tris and tris hcl?

They are all basically the same thing. Tris-HCl is just the Tris base converted to a salt with HCl. You can buy either one. The advantage of starting with powdered Tris-HCl is that it is more soluble in water than the base and as a solution has a more neutral pH which is usually the desirable buffer point. Tris base has a pKa of over 8 so using Tris-HCl saves you the trouble of bringing it to a more neutral pH. The one thing to be careful of when making solutions from powder is to be sure to use the correct molecular weight which differs between the two. To answer your specific question, it doesn't matter which you start with except in the rare cases where the sodium from the NaOH would be an issue. For your situation where the solution is going to be slightly basic, it sounds like you could use either one as the starting reagent. I would go with whatever is already around the lab.
