General description

Hanks′ Balanced Salt solution (HBSS) is a cell and tissue culture solution. It is widely recommended for cell maintenance and conservation of tissues for a longer period. In addition, HBSS is used as a wet storage media for avulsed teeth, as it has the ideal osmolality and physiological pH for preserving the vitality of cells.

Application

Hanks′ Balanced Salt solution (HBSS) has been used for the elimination of the epithelial layer from the leukocytes and lymphocytes from the colon cells. It has also been used for the isolation of quail spermatozoa
