FAQs
What is Sodium Chloride Solution 0.85% (w/v) used for?
Sodium Chloride Solution 0.85% (w/v) is formulated for serological blood bank testing and general laboratory applications. It is commonly used in clinical laboratories for cell washing, reagent preparation, and research procedures requiring isotonic saline conditions similar to human blood.
What is the concentration and pH of this solution?
This solution contains approximately 0.85% sodium chloride by weight, with an acceptable range of 0.83–0.86%. It is phosphate-buffered and maintains a pH of 7.0-7.2, closely matching physiological conditions for blood bank testing.
Is this product suitable for medical infusion?
No, this Sodium Chloride Solution is clearly labeled not for infusion, irrigation, or injection. It is intended strictly for laboratory and serological testing purposes and should not be used for direct patient administration.
Does this solution contain preservatives?
The Sodium Chloride Solution is preservative-free. Its formulation supports laboratory testing applications without introducing additional stabilizers that could interfere with sensitive serological or research procedures.
What standards does this product meet?
This solution is manufactured to meet the NCCLS standard ASI/BB-1 requirements for blood bank applications. Certificates of analysis are available to support documentation and compliance in regulated clinical and laboratory environments.
