Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (DPBS) is a balanced salt solution used for a variety of cell culture applications, such as washing cells before dissociation, transporting cells or tissue samples, diluting cells for counting, and preparing reagents. Formulations without calcium and magnesium are required for rinsing chelators from the culture before cell dissociation. Concentrated forms of Gibco™ DPBS require pH adjustment and filtration at the time of preparation (see protocol for details).

We offer a variety of Gibco™ DPBS formulations for a range of cell culture applications.

The complete formulation is available.
