Sodium Bicarbonate Solution, 7.5%

Product Overview

Sodium Bicarbonate has been the most commonly used buffer in cell culture media because it is the main in vitro / in vivo physiological buffer.

Media with Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) contain a low concentration of Sodium Bicarbonate (350 mg/L) and function best in a closed culture vessel.

Media with Earle’s Balanced Salt Solution contain a higher concentration of Sodium Bicarbonate (2200 mg/L) and function best in an open vessel, incubated in an atmosphere supplied with 5% CO2 in air.

All BioWhittaker^TM Cell Culture Media products are for Research Use Only (RUO) and are not approved for human or veterinary use or for use in clinical or in vitro diagnostic procedures. If you require GMP grade media, contact Lonza for more details.
