Preparation of Buffer Solutions
Standard Buffer Solutions
Standard Buffer Solutions are solutions of standard pH. They are used for reference purposes in pH measurements and for carrying out many pharmacopoeial tests which require adjustments to or maintenance of a specified pH. They may be prepared by the methods described below. The preparation of special buffer solutions is described in the sections in which their use is specified as in the microbiological assay of antibiotics or in the individual monographs where the use of such solutions is indicated.
The reagents required for the preparation of standard buffer solutions are described in Appendix 4.2. All the crystalline reagents except boric acid should be dried at 110° to 120° for 1 hour before use. Carbon dioxide-free water should be used for preparing buffer solutions and wherever water is mentioned for preparation of such solutions the use of carbon dioxide-free water is implied. The prepared solutions should be stored in chemically resistant, glass-stoppered bottles of alkakli-free glass and used within 3 months of preparation. Any solution which has become cloudy or shows any other evidence of deterioration should be discarded.
Standard buffer solutions for various ranges of pH values 1.2 to 10.0 may be prepared by appropriate combinations of 0.2 M hydrochloric acid or 0.2 M sodium hydroxide and of solutions described below, used in the proportions shown in the accompanying tables. The standard pH values given in the tables and elsewhere in the Appendix are considered to be reproducible within ± 0.02 Unit at 25°.
