NEB Diluent and Buffer Table

Composition List for NEB Diluents and Buffers

You can find the composition of NEB buffers and diluents in the table below. The columns represent the diluent or buffer referenced, and the rows represent the individual diluent or buffer components. The squares within the table indicate the final concentration of components for a 1X concentration of the buffer or diluent defined by the column. The final row of the table indicates the final pH of the mixture.

We are excited to announce that we all reaction buffers are now BSA-free. NEB began switching our BSA-containing reaction buffers in April 2021 to buffers containing Recombinant Albumin (rAlbumin) for restriction enzymes and some DNA modifying enzymes. Find more details at www.neb.com/BSA-free.
