Prep. of 50X TAE buffer

... To make 1L of 50x TAE buffer: 242g Tris 100mL of 0.5M EDTA: This is prepared by (In 100 ml 1X PBS, Add 73.2 gram of EDTA) 57.1mL Glacial Acetic Acid Add enough MQ H2O to dissolve solids to final volume of 1000mL. Is my work right??? The pH of PBS is about 7.6, Is this Ok for TAE buffer ...
