When
doing biological experiments, it is
essential that the exact concentration
of every solution be known. It is also
important to know the pH of a solution
since this is often critical in biological
reactions. Buffered solutions, which
can absorb minor perturbations to pH,
are often used to maintain the pH of
a solution. Different ways of describing
the concentration of a solution as
well as pH and buffers are reviewed
below:
