Beschrijving
Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution without Calcium and Magnesium is a balanced salt medium intended for a wide range of cell culture applications. It is routinely used for washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells between vessels, and diluting cell suspensions under controlled ionic conditions. The formulation is modified with glucose and phenol red, while calcium and magnesium are omitted to support protocols in which divalent cations must be excluded. Phenol red acts as a convenient visual pH indicator during handling, and glucose provides a readily available energy source for short-term cell maintenance. Supplied as a single unit with a net weight of 0,500 kg, this HBSS preparation from manufacturer Sartorius integrates readily into standard laboratory workflows. The absence of calcium and magnesium helps reduce unwanted adhesion or aggregation during washing and dissociation steps, supporting cleaner cell recovery. Laboratories employ this solution to maintain osmotic balance and physiological ionic strength throughout routine cell-processing operations in research and production settings.

Questions about Hank's BSS w/o Calcium & Magnesium 500ML
What is this article?
Hank's BSS w/o Calcium & Magnesium 500ML is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Cell culture media & sera, inside Cell culture, in Media.
Cell-culture medium is the liquid a cell line grows in. Serum, often fetal bovine, supplies what the basal medium does not. With or without glutamine, with or without phenol red, and the serum origin are different products. Serum is a cold-chain article and is never part of free standard delivery.
Cell culture grows cells outside the body. The medium, often with serum, supplies what the flask does not. A flask or a dish is the vessel, treated so the cells attach or left untreated so they float. Contamination by microbes, or by another cell line, is the ordinary failure. Cold-chain articles in this work, including serum, are never part of free standard delivery. Lines are catalogued by ATCC. Papers are on PubMed. Practice is summarised by the WHO laboratory biosafety topic.
