The pH may have been adjusted with glacial acetic acid to 6.5 (6.0 to 7.0). The osmolar concentration is 8 mOsmol/mL (calc); specific gravity 1.1511. The solution is intended as an alternative to sodium chloride to provide sodium ion (Na + ) for addition to large volume infusion fluids for intravenous use. Sodium acetate, USP anhydrous is chemically designated as CH 3 COONa, a hygroscopic powder very soluble in water.
