a physiological solution is a solution that contains salts and other constituents in concentrations similar to physiological media.

e.g. Ringer's solution, Tyrod's solution, buffered saline.

How do you make a physiological salt solution?

Physiological salt solution is 0.9 %(g/l-%) sodium chloride (Na Cl).(0.9 % is the concentration that is usually used. It's 0.877 % in hospitals(?).It's easier to count the water in grams, though 0,9% is of grams per litres. There's many types of concentrations and it's a bit messy, but here it doesn't matter because 100 ml water is 100 grams)So when 0.9 % * 100 % = 0.009, you multiply it with the water's weight (or volume and change litres into grams - you need to measure sodium chloride in grams.For 1 dl of physiological salt solution: 0.009 * 100 g = 0.9 g saltFor 0,5 litres of physiological salt solution: 0.009 * 500 g = 4.5 g saltIn scales, for example 0.9 g = 900 mg.(Actually the 0.9 % should be taken from the final product, like this:0,009 * 1 + x = x0,991 x = 0,009x ≈ 0,009082But it doesn't matter because the 0,9 % is also an approximation and relevant.)Also known as: normal saline, isotonic sodium chloride solution; normal salt solution; physiological saline; physiological salt solution; physiological sodium chloride solution; sodium chloride solution.

What is the pH of Ringer's lactate solution?

Ringer's lactate solution typically has a pH of about 6.6 to 7.6, which falls within the physiological range for compatibility with the body's cells and tissues.


Why Krebs ringer bicarbonate solution is used for muscle incubation?

Krebs Ringer bicarbonate solution is used for muscle incubation because it closely mimics the physiological conditions found in the body. It provides the necessary ions, nutrients, and pH levels to maintain muscle integrity and function during incubation experiments. Additionally, the bicarbonate helps buffer the solution and maintain stable pH levels for optimal muscle performance.

What is the composition of physiological saline?

A physiological saline is a solution of salts and sugars intended to act as a medium for growing or maintaining live tissue. The solution mimics the salt concentrations of the tissues' natural environment, while providing some buffering to maintain the pH of the solution. Since different tissues from different species are subject to varying internal environments, a large number of physiological salines have been developed over the last century. For example, the original Ringer's solution was developed to mimic amphibian blood, Hank's solution was intended for human tissue, Cortland's saline was designed for the tissue of freshwater fishes, and phosphate-buffered saline is commonly used as a divalent-free saline that is isotonic with human blood. While the composition of every solution is unique, physiological salines developed for vertebrates (such as those mentioned above) have much in common. Such salines are predominately sodium chloride with a concentration of about 0.9% (or 9.0g/L). In lesser concentrations, they often include: sodium monobasic phosphate, sodium dibasic phosphate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, magnessium chloride, magnessium sulfate, and glucose.
