Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) is a vital component in cell culture that maintains the structural and physiological integrity of cells during the culture process. It serves various roles, such as transport, dilution, and irrigation, to sustain intra- and extracellular osmotic pressure. HBSS, when combined with glucose, serves as a primary source of energy for cellular metabolism and as a buffer to maintain physiological pH conditions. Biowest’s HBSS without calcium and magnesium is ideal for washing and resuspending cells during the dissociation process.
