Bicine

Bicine is an organic compound used as a buffering agent. It is a zwitterionic buffer and one of the Good's buffers . It is prepared by the reaction ofglycine with ethylene oxide, followed by hydrolysis of the resultant lactone. It is a recommended buffer for low temperature biochemical work. Used for the preparation of stable substrate solution for serum guanase determination.


Bicine is used in a thin layer ion exchange chromatography method for protein resolution.It is used in peptide and protein crystallization.Bicine is used in a kinetic study of a quaternary transition-state analogue complex of creatine kinase and in multiphasic buffer system for SDS-PAGE of proteins.
