General description

Dulbecco′s Phosphate Buffered Saline (D-PBS) is a balanced salt solution developed for use in tissue culture.

Application

D-PBS is a general use isotonic saline solution used to wash cells during preparation and serial transfer.
Dulbecco′s Phosphate Buffered Saline has been used:
  • as a component of the reaction mixture for the fluoro-labeling reaction of pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF)-YBBR
  • to wash and equilibrate the cells post transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement of Caco-2BBe cells
  • to wash cells for protein isolation

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dulbecco′s Phosphate Buffered Saline (D-PBS) exhibits four chief functions:
  • provides cells with water and certain bulk inorganic ions essential for normal cell metabolism
  • serves as an irrigating, transporting, and diluting fluid while maintaining intra- and extracellular osmotic balance
  • when combined with a carbohydrate, such as glucose, provides the principal energy source for cell metabolism
  • provides a buffering system to maintain the medium within the physiological pH range
