Sodium Citrate Solution (0.8%), Sterile Filtered, 500 ml
Sodium Citrate Solution (0.8%) is a sterile, isotonic reagent prepared in purified, cell culture–grade water. It is commonly used in cytogenetic protocols for cell preservation, hypotonic treatment, and preparation of metaphase chromosome spreads. Sodium citrate acts as a gentle anticoagulant and lysing agent, facilitating the swelling and stabilization of cells for optimal chromosome visualization during analysis.
Applications:
- Karyotyping and chromosomal banding techniques
- Chromosome harvesting protocols
- Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
- Preparation of metaphase spreads for cytogenetic evaluation
This solution supports consistent and reliable chromosome analysis, making it an essential reagent in both research and clinical cytogenetic workflows.
