Abstract
A peritoneal dialysis solution comprising at least one cation, a chloride ion contained at a concentration differing from a concentration of total cation so that the concentration of chloride ion will be lower than the concentration of total cation, and organic acids contained so as to maintain electrical neutrality depending on a difference in concentration between the total cation and chloride ion, the concentration of organic acids satisfies a predetermined equation. Also, disclosed is a method for adjusting a peritoneal dialysis solution, comprising providing a difference in concentration between total cation and chloride ion, adding organic acids so as to maintain electrical neutrality, and adjusting dialyzing performance depending on a degree of the difference in concentration and/or kind of organic acid added.
