Sodium Bicarbonate 7.2% – Medical Grade Buffer Solution

Sodium bicarbonate 7.2% is a sterile, isotonic buffer solution. Used in medical and industrial applications for pH control and alkalinity management. It’s pharmaceutical-grade – 7.2% sodium bicarbonate in purified water. Good for IV therapy, dialysis, and lab work.

Healthcare facilities and industrial operations in Australia use sodium bicarbonate 7.2% to maintain pH levels in critical processes. Helps ensure safe treatment outcomes while meeting quality standards.

What Is Sodium Bicarbonate 7.2%?

Made by dissolving pharmaceutical-grade sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) in sterile water for injection. Creates a stable liquid for controlled alkalinization. Also called sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. Works as a buffering agent in medical and industrial processes. The exact concentration makes it good for consistent pH modification and correcting metabolic alkalosis.

Medical & Industrial Uses

In IV therapy, sodium bicarbonate 7.2% corrects metabolic acidosis and restores acid-base balance in patients. Works as a pH adjustment chemical in dialysis. Ensures proper electrolyte balance during treatment. Labs use it for buffer prep and analytical procedures needing precise alkalinity control. Industrial water treatment uses it when pH modification is needed for system performance.

Bicarbonate vs carbonate solutions – bicarbonate is often better for medical use. Has gentler buffering action. Works better with biological systems.
