PBS (phosphate buffer saline) is used to maintain osmolarity of cells i.e. maintaining an isotonic environment. it is used to maintain pH of proteins at which its native structure could be maintained.

What is the difference between phosphate buffer and phosphate buffered saline?
actualy there is no major difference , on the basis of composition ,can be differentiate in saline buffer nacl was used and isotonicity take place
What is the function of monopotassium phosphate?
I'm not sure, but I know it's in my "Gatorade Rain"
What is the name of Na3PO3?
The compound with formula Na3PO4 is named "sodium phosphate", "trisodium phosphate", "sodium ortho-phosphate", or "trisodium ortho-phosphate".
What is the compound name of K3PO2?
potassium phosphite
What is phosphate made of?
Phosphate is made of phosphorous and oxygen. The formula for the phosphate ion is PO43-.
What is 1x PBS?

What does PBS do in DNA extraction?
Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS): a salty solution of constant pH to keep tissues, cells, and proteins intact during maceration
What is sterile pbs?
sterilized (either by filter or by heat) Phosphate buffered Saline solution used to wash cells or for other biological applications
What is sorensens buffer?
Phosphate buffered saline is a buffer solution commonly used in biological research. It is a water-based salt solution containing sodium phosphate, sodium chloride and, in some formulations, potassium chloride and potassium phosphate. The osmolarity and ion concentrations of the solutions match those of the human body.
What is washed red blood cells?
These r cells whose plasma have been filtered after centrifugating, and PBS( phosphate buffered saline) has been used in rinsing d cell components left after removing the plasma
What is the function of PBS buffer?
The main function of PBS (phosphate buffer saline) is to maintain the pH of the solution. by Himanshu Goel Jaypee University of Information Technology
Why is saline used in serial dilution?
Because the osmotic pressure of "plain" water can be too much for bacteria, causing them to pop, and throw off your colony counts during your serial dilutions. A buffered saline solution keeps the bacteria at their usual osmotic pressure. Typical saline is 0.85%.
What is fixation in microbiology?
Fixation is performed to preserve cells in a sample and to and to make the cells permeable to reagents and probes, then samples can be stored for a certain period of time, while the cells remain intact. Generally the amount of time they can remain intact is unknown. Paraformaldehyde fixative is the chemical that you use, along with NaOH and phosphate buffered saline.
