Standard electromotive force of the H2-AgCl;Ag cell in 30, 40, and 50 mass% glycerol/water from -20 to 25 degrees C: pK2 and pH values for a standard "mops" buffer in 50 mass% glycerol/water

A temperature independent pH (TIP) buffer for biomedical biophysical applications at low temperatures

A temperature independent pH buffer has been developed from a combination of buffers of opposite-sign temperature coefficients, and utility in low temperature spectroscopy and storage of pH sensitive compounds is demonstrated.

Acid dissociation constants and pH values for standard "bes" and "tricine" buffer solutions in 30, 40, and 50 mass% dimethyl sulfoxide/water between 25 and -25 degrees C

Information is given concerning two standard buffer solutions suitable as pH references in 30, 40, and 50 mass% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/H2O mixed solvents at subzero temperatures from -20 to 0 degrees C, with the intention of establishing a pH (designated pH*) scale. The two buffers selected were the ampholytes N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-aminoethane sulfonic acid ("bes") and N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methylglycine ("tricine"), and the reference standard consisted of equal molal quantities of the buffer and its respective sodium salt. The assignment of pH* values was based on measurements of the emf of cells without liquid junction of the type: Pt;H2(g,l atm) /Bes, Na Besate, NaCl / AgCl;Ag and Pt;H2(g,l atm) /Tricine, Na Tricinate, NaCl /AgCl;Ag and the pH* was derived from a determination of K2, the equilibrium constant for the dissociation process (Buffer)+/- in equilibrium with(Buffer)- + H+.
