Tricine, ndi zwitterionic buffer reagent yomwe dzina lake limachokera ku Tris ndi glycine.Mapangidwe ake ndi ofanana ndi Tris, koma ndende yake yayikulu imakhala ndi zoletsa zofooka kuposa Tris.Chimodzi mwazinthu za Good's buffer reagents, zomwe zidapangidwa kuti zipereke njira yosungiramo ma chloroplast.Mitundu ya pH ya Tricine ndi 7.4-8.8, pKa=8.1 (25 °C), ndipo imagwiritsidwa ntchito ngati buffer komanso kuyimitsa ma cell a cell.Tricine ali ndi makhalidwe a otsika zoipa mlandu ndi mkulu ayoni mphamvu, amene ali oyenera kwambiri electrophoretic kulekanitsa otsika maselo kulemera mapuloteni 1 ~ 100 kDa.Mu kuyesa kwa ATP kwa ziphaniphani ndi luciferase, kuyerekeza ma buffers wamba 10, Tricine (25 mM) adawonetsa zodziwika bwino kwambiri.Kuphatikiza apo, Tricine ndiwothandizanso pa hydroxyl radical scavenger pakuyesa kuwonongeka kwa membrane kwaulere.
