General description

Balanced salt solution (BSS) provides cells with water, bulk inorganic ions, and buffering system to maintain the normal cell metabolism and physiological range (pH 7.2-7.6), respectively. It also acts as an irrigating, diluting, and transporting agent and maintains the intracellular and extracellular osmotic balance. BSS also provides energy sources such as glucose for cell metabolism.

Application

Hanks′ Balanced Salt has been used:

  • to culture primary hippocampal neuron cells from rats
  • to collect the rat brains
  • to culture rat primary hepatocytes

Preparation Note

Formulated to contain 9.5 grams of powder per liter of medium.
Supplement with 0.35 g/L sodium bicarbonate.

Other Notes

The pH is adjusted after addition of sodium bicarbonate.

Storage Class

13 - Non Combustible Solids

Despite intensive attempts to fabricate polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy-NPs) incorporated nanofibrous scaffolds, a low-cost facile strategy is still demanded. Herein, we developed a novel strategy- in-situ polymerization of PPy-NPs and immobilized them into the PCL polymeric matrix in a single step.

Norepinephrine (NE) control of hypothalamic gluco-regulation involves astrocyte-derived energy fuel supply. In male rats, exogenous NE regulates astrocyte glycogen metabolic enzyme expression in vivo through 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-dependent mechanisms. Current research utilized a rat hypothalamic astrocyte primary culture model
