  2. Lip piercing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lip_piercing

    A home-made saline solution made from non-iodized sea salt and hot distilled or filtered water is a common way to heal a lip piercing and avoid infection. This solution can be used to rinse out the mouth after eating (or the mouth can be rinsed with non-alcoholic, non-antimicrobial mouth wash) and to soak the outside of the piercing.

  3. Salt poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_poisoning

    Salt poisoning is an intoxication resulting from the excessive intake of sodium (usually as sodium chloride) either in solid form or in solution (saline water, including brine, brackish water, or seawater). Salt poisoning sufficient to produce severe symptoms is rare, and lethal salt poisoning is possible but even rarer. The lethal dose of ...

  4. Saline (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saline_(medicine)

    Saline (also known as saline solution) is a mixture of sodium chloride (salt) and water. [1] It has a number of uses in medicine including cleaning wounds, removal and storage of contact lenses, and help with dry eyes. [2] By injection into a vein, it is used to treat hypovolemia such as that from gastroenteritis and diabetic ketoacidosis.

  5. Sodium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride

    The chloride ions are also strongly solvated, each being surrounded by an average of six molecules of water. [31] Solutions of sodium chloride have very different properties from pure water. The eutectic point is −21.12 °C (−6.02 °F) for 23.31% mass fraction of salt, and the boiling point of saturated salt solution is near 108.7 °C (227. ...

  6. Trisodium orthoborate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisodium_orthoborate

    It is a sodium salt of the orthoboric acid B(OH) 3. The compound is also called trisodium orthoborate, sodium orthoborate, or just sodium borate. However, "sodium orthoborate" has been used also for a compound with formula Na 4 B 2 O 5, which would correspond to an equimolar mixture of sodium metaborate NaBO 2 and trisodium borate proper.

  7. Balanced salt solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_salt_solution

    A balanced salt solution (BSS) is a solution made to a physiological pH and isotonic salt concentration. Solutions most commonly include sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and chloride. [1] Balanced salt solutions are used for washing tissues and cells and are usually combined with other agents to treat the tissues and cells. They provide ...

  8. Electrochlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochlorination

    The solution travels to a tank that separates the hydrogen gas based on its low density. [1] Only water and sodium chloride are used. The simplified chemical reaction is: NaCl + H 2 O + energy → NaOCl + H 2 [citation needed] That is, energy is added to sodium chloride (table salt) in water, producing sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen gas.

  9. Ringer's solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringer's_solution

    Ringer's solution is a solution of several salts dissolved in water for the purpose of creating an isotonic solution relative to the body fluids of an animal. Ringer's solution typically contains sodium chloride , potassium chloride , calcium chloride and sodium bicarbonate , with the last used to buffer the pH .
