Distilled water. It has less bacteria and chemicals in it than tap water.
No, distilled water is simply water.
Questioner: Please see the comment page.
Distilled water is not a base.
Sterile distilled water has no microbial contamination and is distilled and and sterile water merely has no microbial contamination.Distillation is the process of separation by heating a liquid until it evaporates and then condensing the steam back into a purer liquid as all contamination remains in the part which does not evaporate.
no. Distilled water has had all chemicals and minerals removed, usually by steaming and re-condensation. Sterile water has been treated, usually heat treated, to destroy pathogens (any living organisms). So, you can sterilize distilled water, but not all distilled water is sterile. manufacturing criteria do NOT require that regular distilled water be packaged to prevent contamination. Water sold as sterile water must be packaged to avoid contamination. On the other hand, water full of minerals can be sterilized; the minerals are still present. So if you want mineral free, organism free water, you need sterile distilled; if just mineral free, distilled.
Distillation is achieved by boiling the water and collecting and cooling the evaporate in a sterile container.
Yes. Just make sure it is a medical grade sterile water. Don't use boiled tap water. Ideally you should use propylene glycol (PG) as well.
Distilled water is the kind of water that must be used in medical preparations. Distilled water is the closest thing that can be found to absolutely clean water.
yes
Yes. Essentialy deionized and distilled water are the same because distilled water is just water that has all ions taken out and therefore wont carry and electrical charge.
Eye wash is usually sterile saline solution so that it does not burn or sting when placed on the eye.
It is easy to prepare distilled water at home. Simply fill a large pot with water and place a collection container inside the pot. As the water boils, the steam is collected inside the collection container. This collected steam is distilled water and it should be stored in a sterile container.

You would wan to dilute the trisodium citrate in distilled water to create a 1% solution. So if you wanted 100mL of solution, you would mix 1mL of trisodium citrate with 99mL of distilled sterile water.
