HBSS without calcium and magnesium is required for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation.<br>Hygia’s balanced salt solutions are manufactured at a cGMP-compliant facility using water for injection, filtered through final 0.1 μm sterile filtration and aseptic filled in a Hundred-stage FFU. The filter integrity tests are performed before and after filtration. Each lot of HBSS solutions are subjected to sterility test, pH, and osmolality.

HBSS with calcium and magnesium is generally used as transport media or for reagent preparation. HBSS without calcium and magnesium is required for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation.
