General description

Krebs-Henseleit Buffer Modified is a balanced salt solution (BSS) that is used in cell culture and plays a role in providing cells with water and inorganic salts for normal cell metabolism. In addition, it provides a buffering system to maintain the optimal pH of the medium and acts as an irrigating, transporting, and diluting agent to maintain the intra- and extra-cellular osmotic balance. BSS provides glucose as an energy source for cell metabolism.

Krebs-Henseleit Buffer Modified has been used:

  • to collect the rat brains for ex vivo brain slice experiments
  • to measure calcium and sodium in rat pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAECs)
  • to collect the uterine and forelimb blood vessel samples from horses
