it's hypotonic
Isotonic solution is a solution in which the concentration of solutes is essentially equal to that of cytosol of the cell placed in that solution. There is no net osmotic pressure on a membrane placed between 2 isotonic solutions.
An isotonic solution for an egg membrane would have a concentration of solutes that is the same as the concentration inside the egg. Examples include a solution of 0.9% saline or a solution of 5% glucose.
An isotonic solution for human red blood cells is a solution with the same osmotic pressure as the inside of the cells. This allows the cells to maintain their normal shape and size without losing or gaining water. Common examples of isotonic solutions include saline solutions and Ringer's lactate.
Normal saline solution (0.9% NaCl) is considered isotonic with blood (although it actually has a slightly higher degree of osmolality). Ringers lactate is also considered isotonic.5% Dextrose solution is also considered hypotonic compared with blood, because although it is isotonic while infusing, the dextrose is metabolized and free water is left, which is hypotonic.
Isotonic saline is 0.9% saline. Thus, when receiving IV fluids, Normal Saline is often given at a concentration of 0.9% as to be isotonic with blood. Other medical applications necessitate the administration of hyper-/hypotonic saline solutions that would induce various osmotic shifts.
Normal Saline is an isotonic solution.
isotonic saline solution
Isotonic saline solution has no net effect on red blood cells (RBCs) as it has the same osmolarity as blood. This means that RBCs will neither shrink (crenate) nor swell (lyse) when placed in isotonic saline solution. The solution maintains the normal shape and function of the RBCs.
This is an isotonic saline solution; 9 g/L sodium chloride solution in water with added glucose.
A 2.5% dextrose in normal saline solution is hypertonic. Normal saline (0.9% NaCl) is isotonic, but adding dextrose increases the osmolarity, making the solution hypertonic.
yes it is isotonic solution.
it's hypotonic
Normal Saline Solution, or anything that contains 0.9% NaCl
Isotonic solution is a solution in which the concentration of solutes is essentially equal to that of cytosol of the cell placed in that solution. There is no net osmotic pressure on a membrane placed between 2 isotonic solutions.
This is a isotonic saline solution.
.91 saline is normal saline which is isotonic. 5% dextrose is also isotonic. so the combination is still isotonic
0.9% saline is isotonic to blood.
