Dulbecco’s Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) (10X) w/CaCl2, MgCl2 (Powder)
Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS) is intended for use in the maintenance of mammalian cells where a chemically defined, balanced salt solution provides an environment that will maintain the structural and physiological integrity of cells in vitro. DPBS is commonly used in cell enumerations as a diluent, for rinsing cells and as a buffer in many chromotographic procedures. DPBS also is used to wash and resuspend cells during the dissociation process.

To make a 10X solution
Dissolve 97.825 grams in ~950ml of ddH2O, stirring gently with heating until completely solubilized. Allow to cool and then adjust pH of the medium to the desired level. Add additional water to bring the solution to1L. Solution may be filter-sterilized or autoclaved for 15 minutes at 121ºC (15psi). Bottles of stored solution can be warmed in a hot water bath prior to use if crystallization is observed.
