Description & Advantages
Balanced Salt Solution (BSS), also known as Physiological Solution, combines the buffering capacity of a buffer system, the isotonic properties of physiological saline, and the basic nutrient supply characteristics of culture media. It functions to maintain osmotic balance, stabilize pH, and provide essential nutrients, thereby supporting the basic survival and metabolic requirements of tissues, organs, or cells in vitro. Some balanced salt solutions also contain a small amount of phenol red as a pH indicator.
