Tyrode's solution

Tyrode's solution

Tyrode's solution is a solution that is roughly isotonic with interstitial fluid and used in physiological experiments and tissue culture. It resembles Lactated Ringer's solution, but contains magnesium, a sugar (usually glucose) as an energy source and uses bicarbonate and/or HEPES as a buffer instead of lactate. Some variations also include phosphate and sulfate ions.

Development of Tyrode's solution

Tyrode's solution was invented by Maurice Vejux Tyrode [ [http://www.whonamedit.com/synd.cfm/2120.html Tyrode's solution (www.whonamedit.com) ] ] , an American physiologist. The solution was a modification of Ringer-Locke's solution.
