I would like to know if the functionality of the buffer gets degraded after autoclaving it?

I need to prepare PBS buffer. I would like to know if the functionality of the buffer gets degraded after autoclaving it?

Robert Adolf Brinzer

The phosphate might precipitate out but that can be fixed by agitation after it has cooled. Otherwise PBS is mineral in composition with no thermolabile components.
