  • to treat silicone square to prepare it for the biofilm assay for in vitro biofilm growth conditions[2]
  • in cell culture as a component in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium for digesting articular cartilage and proximal metacarpals[3]
  • as a lubricating solution in hydrodynamic analysis and to imitate the synovial joints
