What is balanced salt solution?

Balanced salt solution is a solution widely used in laboratory and medical field. Balanced salt solution simulates the body fluid environment and provides stable growth and experimental conditions for cells. Balanced salt solution is mainly composed of normal saline (NaCl) and glucose, in which inorganic salts such as sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) are important components of cells. Only by providing necessary electrolyte and maintaining appropriate osmotic pressure and pH value can cells grow healthily and maintain life. Balanced salt solution is a complex liquid used to support cell culture and clinical treatment. By providing the necessary electrolyte, maintaining appropriate osmotic pressure and pH value, promoting the healthy growth of cells and maintaining the physiological state of life.
