#47 — Buffers are everywhere in a lab. But do you know why we use them? Listen to this episode of Mentors At Your Benchside as we explain what buffers are, how they work, and why understanding this could improve your research. You'll also get top tips on choosing and using buffers in the lab.

Check out the original article on how buffers work for helpful figures and to get a non-exhaustive list of Good's buffers. [1] Now you know how buffers work, why not learn how to design the perfect buffer for your protein purification experiments, [2] or read about what separates good buffers from outstanding ones? [3]
