What is PBS?
Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) is a balanced salt solution that is integral for cell culture health by maintaining the physiological integrity of mammalian cells and some plants. It combines the isotonic power of saline with pH-stabilizing phosphate buffers, which is essential for research and clinical cell culture work.
PBS: Essential Buffer for Cell Culture, Immunoassays, and Molecular Biology
PBS has countless applications as a wash solution in both biological research and clinical settings. From SARS-CoV-2 cultures to biopsy sampling, this solution is a backbone ingredient in nearly all testing scenarios.
Some of the most common uses include:
- Mammalian cell culture
- Exosome research
- 3D cell culture
- Virology and vaccine development
- Biologics development
- Flow cytometry
- Immunohistochemistry
