Biochem/physiol Actions

Balanced Salt solution participates in providing cells with water, bulk inorganic ions, and nutrients like carbohydrates essential for normal cell metabolism. It acts as an irrigating, transporting, and diluting fluid to maintain cellular osmotic balance. Balance salt solution helps in maintaining the medium within the physiological pH range (7.2 to 7.6).
