Hank's Balanced Salts Solution, Sterile Filtered, 100 ml

Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) containing phenol red serves as a balanced salt medium designed to maintain physiological pH and osmotic balance during cell culture and related procedures. The absence of calcium and magnesium ions makes it suitable for applications where these ions may interfere with cellular processes or enzymatic reactions.

Applications:

• Washing and maintaining cells during short-term incubations
• Supporting assays sensitive to calcium and magnesium
• Use in enzymatic reactions where calcium and magnesium are excluded
• Suitable for colorimetric assays benefiting from phenol red as a pH indicator

This sterile filtered solution provides a reliable environment for various cell biology applications requiring precise ionic composition.
