Physiological salt solution is 0.9 %(g/l-%) sodium chloride (Na Cl).

(0.9 % is the concentration that is usually used. It's 0.877 % in hospitals(?).

It's easier to count the water in grams, though 0,9% is of grams per litres. There's many types of concentrations and it's a bit messy, but here it doesn't matter because 100 ml water is 100 grams)

So when 0.9 % * 100 % = 0.009, you multiply it with the water's weight (or volume and change litres into grams - you need to measure sodium chloride in grams.

For 1 dl of physiological salt solution: 0.009 * 100 g = 0.9 g salt

For 0,5 litres of physiological salt solution: 0.009 * 500 g = 4.5 g salt

In scales, for example 0.9 g = 900 mg.

(Actually the 0.9 % should be taken from the final product, like this:

0,009 * 1 + x = x

0,991 x = 0,009

x ≈ 0,009082

But it doesn't matter because the 0,9 % is also an approximation and relevant.)

Also known as: normal saline, isotonic sodium chloride solution; normal salt solution; physiological saline; physiological salt solution; physiological sodium chloride solution; sodium chloride solution.

To make a physiological salt solution, mix 0.9% sodium chloride (commonly known as saline solution) with sterile water. This solution closely matches the salt concentration in the human body and is commonly used for medical purposes like intravenous hydration or wound cleaning.

A Physiological salt solution is a technically incorrect term for a normal saline solution. A normal saline solution is %0.90 NaCl (sodium chloride.) (percentage is mass per volume.
