FluxMPS™ UltraClean PVSA-Tris-HCl, 1X
An MPS-grade, RNase-safe 1X Tris-HCl buffer (10 mM, pH 7.4) supplemented with polyvinylsulfonic acid (PVSA), a potent polymeric RNase inhibitor that helps preserve RNA integrity during resuspension, handling, and short-term storage. Quadruple-stage filtered — 0.1 µm membrane twice and 0.04 µm membrane twice — using ultrapure, nuclease-free water for demanding RNA and DNA molecular biology workflows.

Engineered where standard RNA buffers fail
Conventional single-pass 0.22 µm-filtered buffers can carry subvisible particulates, residual bioburden, and adventitious RNases into RNA workflows, degrading sample integrity before analysis even begins. FluxMPS™ UltraClean PVSA-Tris-HCl, 1X is built with a quadruple-stage filtration architecture and an active RNase-inhibiting additive to remove these failure modes at the source.[1]
Microchannel-safe purity
Sequential 0.1 µm and 0.04 µm membrane filtration, applied twice each, removes finer particulates than a single 0.22 µm pass, protecting narrow microfluidic channels and sensitive nucleic acid preparations.
Precise, stable pH
A defined 10 mM Tris-HCl formulation delivers a consistent pH 7.4 buffering environment, leveraging the well-characterized buffering capacity of Tris-HCl during routine sample handling steps.[2]
Ultrapure-grade water
Formulated with ultrapure, nuclease-free Type 1 water (18.2 MΩ·cm), consistent with USP <85> water-quality expectations, to minimize adventitious nuclease introduction.
Low background for downstream assays
A colorless, particulate-free solution supports clean downstream enzymatic reactions and molecular biology assays without visible interference.
Defined, traceable composition
Every component — Tris-HCl, PVSA, and ultrapure water — is added at a specified concentration, giving a fully documented, reproducible formulation.
Customization on demand
Alternate concentrations, additional chemicals, compounds, proteins, or supplements, and different pH values can be formulated on request.
Quadruple-stage filtration system
UltraClean PVSA-Tris-HCl, 1X is filtered through a 0.1 µm membrane twice and a 0.04 µm membrane twice, giving a four-stage purification sequence before final ISO Class 5 fill.
- 1
0.1 µm Pre-filtration I
Removes large particulates and aggregates, extending the working life of the downstream filtration stages.
- 2
0.04 µm Pre-filtration II
Retains finer particulates and bioburden ahead of the second filtration pass.
- 3
0.1 µm Sterile-filtration I
A second 0.1 µm pass provides redundancy against breakthrough particulates.
- 4
0.04 µm Sterile-filtration II — Final Polish
A second 0.04 µm pass delivers the final polish under ISO Class 5 (Class 100) aseptic fill conditions.
Performance vs. conventional buffer
Sequential 0.1 µm and 0.04 µm filtration, each applied twice, removes finer particulates than a single 0.22 µm pass used in conventional buffers.
