Descripción

General description

Balanced Salt solutions (BSS) are essential in cell culture as they serve as irrigating, transporting, and diluting agents to maintain the osmotic balance between intra-and extracellular spaces. They provide cells with water, inorganic ions, and energy for normal cell metabolism. BSS also provides a buffering system to maintain the medium within the optimum pH range (7.2-7.6).

Application

Hanks′ Balanced Salt has been used:

• in the preparation of stock solution for culturing mice primary hepatocytes
• to measure the mineralized nodule formation in human osteoblast cultures
• in the preparation of embryo buffer to collect zebrafish eggs

Supplement with 0.35 g/L sodium bicarbonate.
