Definition

material state of a solution in which the dissolved solute concentration stays at the solute’s equilibrium saturation concentration in that solution under prevailing conditions

Examples

  • a concentrated buffer solution at the solubility limit of one buffer component during preparation; a cell culture medium at the calcium phosphate solubility limit under pH 7.0 and 37 Β°C conditions; a bicarbonate-buffered medium with dissolved carbon dioxide at equilibrium under 5% COβ‚‚;
