This document provides instructions for preparing 1 M and 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer solutions at various pH levels between 6.0-7.2 and 5.8-8.0 respectively. It details making stock solutions of monobasic and dibasic sodium phosphate and then mixing specified volumes of each stock to achieve the desired pH when diluted to 1 L with water. Tables list the volumes of each stock solution needed to prepare 1 L of buffer at different pH values within the given ranges.

Sodium phosphate
1 M sodium buffer (pH 6.0–7.2)
Mixing 1 designated in the table below results in 1 L phosphate of 1 M sodium phosphate buffer of the desired pH. To prepare the stock solutions, dissolve 138 g of NaH2PO4•H2O (monobasic; m.w. = 138) in sufficient H 2O to make a final volume of 1 L and dissolve 142 g of Na2HPO4 (dibasic; m.w. = 142) in sufficient H2O to make a final volume of 1 L.M NaH2PO4 (monobasic) and 1 M Na2HPO4 (dibasic) stock solutions in the volumes

phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) Add 3.1 g of NaH2PO4•H2O and 10.9 g of Na2HPO4 (anhydrous) to distilled H2O to make a volume of 1 L. The pH of the final solution will be 7.4. This buffer can be stored for up to 1 mo at 4°C. 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer (from 1 M stocks) at 25°C To prepare 1 L of 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer of the desired pH, the following mixtures should be diluted to 1 L (final volume) with H2O.
