Hey everyone, is Tank Buffer, (TRIS-Glycine SDS-PAGE, PH 8.8) a carcinogen or dangerous?

I am really freaked out right now. I can't find it anywhere on google or yahoo and I am seriously scared. Please help. I've been on this forum quite some time without an account for quite some time, but I am really scared right now. Please help.

you're fine

in the future look for the MSDS in your lab

r u sure that substance is fine? I read that TRIS is carcinogenic? So does that mean Tris-Glycine is? I am so scared right now. I am crying so hard, and my PI is out on a vacation... and I was running some projects on my own. I don't know who to turn to right now. R you sure what I spilled on my skin is fine? It was alot.

P.S. I am not trolling

You could probably check out student health services for advice.

.... this is a question for whoever is in charge of your lab... and if that's you... may the lord have mercy.

Did your lab not give you a safety training session?

Did you wash the skin area with cold water for 15 minutes?

SDN is not for medical advice. Follow the exposure protocol of your lab. Here's an MSDS for TANK Buffer. http://www.cellsignal.com/pdf/4050.pdf
