This paper describes the use of glycylglycine to prepare dialysis solution containing bicarbonate, calcium and magnesium. Bicarbonate with glycylglycine form a buffer with a constant pH of 7.35, which prevents reaction with calcium or magnesium and the formation of insoluble carbonate salts. This bicarbonate-based solution is stable over long periods and can be used with the same simplicity and convenience as lactate solution for peritoneal dialysis (PD) in humans.
