Description

Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a cell growth supplement generally preferred over other types of cell culture sera. Its high levels of nutrients and optimal combination of growth factors makes it an effective cell growth promoter for most cell culture systems. In addition, the significantly lower content of antibodies compared to adult and newborn sera minimizes the risk of antibody cross reaction with cells in culture.

Our extensive portfolio of high quality FBS is now classified into three distinct categories, enabling you to easily select from a curated list that meets your precise requirements and featuring your most relevant criteria including:
  • Testing for the absence of specific contaminants
  • Gamma-irradiated and nonirradiated serum
  • Geographic origin
  • Suitability for hybridoma culture
  • Triple filtered with 0.1 micron membrane
  • Under aseptic conditions
  • Need for heat-inactivation
