Sodium Chloride

Sodium Chloride is an ionic compound with the formula NaCl. It is responsible for the extracellular fluid of many multicellular organisms. Sodium Chloride is very important for life on earth. The concentration of sodium ion in blood is directly related to the regulation of body fluid safety level. The conduction of nerve impulses caused by signal conversion is also regulated by sodium ions. Sodium Chloride can be used for the preparation of balanced salt solutions, such as Phosphate Buffer-Saline (PBS).
