Description
Balanced Salt Solution (Physiological Solution) have the properties of buffer solution (regulate pH), normal saline (maintain osmotic pressure) and culture medium (provide nutrition). It can meet the basic needs of survival and metabolism of tissues, organs or cells in vitro. A small amount of phenolic red was added to some equilibrium salt solutions to indicate the pH change of the solution. Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) is one of the commonly used phosphate buffers in cell separation or culture. The main components are NaCl, KCl, KH2PO4 Na2HPO4 NaHCO3 and glucose. HBSS is used for the washing of cells before passage and tissue dissociation, preparation of cell dissociation reagent, transport of cell or tissue, dilution of cells, etc
