Krebs–Henseleit solution, developed by
Hans Krebs and
Kurt Henseleit, is a
solution containing
sodium (Na),
potassium (K),
chloride (Cl),
calcium (Ca),
magnesium sulfate (MgSO
4),
bicarbonate (HCO
3),
phosphate (PO

glucose, and sometimes supplemented with
albumin, and

It has been used experimentally, for instance to study arteries ''
ex vivo'', in
Langendorff heart preparations,
and during
isolated muscle testing of mammalian
skeletal muscles.
