The main difference is in composition. In TE common Tris buffer is bring down to pH 8 with HCl and EDTA is involved but in TAE instead of Tris HCl in TE Tris-acetate buffer is used.

What is the full name for te buffer?

It is a buffer used in biology. "te" is derived from its components: t from tris, a common pH buffer, and e from the EDTA, a molecule. The purpose of TE buffer is to solubilize DNA or RNA, while protecting it from degradation.

Role of extraction buffer in DNA isolation?

TE buffer contains EDTA, which is a strong chelating agent. It chelates the Mg2+ ions present in the solution. Since endonucleases use Mg2+ for their activity, degradation is slowed or checked using this buffer. This buffer is also maintained at a pH of 8.0 for the same reason. At this pH, the endonucleases show least activity. All in all, the DNA or RNA sample that we have is safe from getting degraded.


Why is isolated DNA suspended in TE buffer only instead of any buffer like phosphate buffer or so?

Tris EDTA buffer inhibits nucleases that will degrade the DNA, by chelating cations required by the enzymes. Phosphate buffer offers no such protection against degradation.

Why you are using SE buffer in DNA extraction?

TE buffer protect DNA or RNA from degradation. "TE" is derived from its components: Tris (Interact with the lipopolysaccharide and lyes the cell membrane and prevent other cells from attacking), and EDTA, a molecule chelating agent. It is commonly use to protect the DNA or RNA while storing it.
