Serum reagent ECS01 series

FBSgrowth factorfibronectin

Serum provides all of the growth factors, vitamins, co-factors, hormones, attachment factors (fibronectin, laminin), transport factors (albumin, globulin, transferrin), nutrients (nucleosides, amino acids, fatty acids, lipids), trace elements and other factors which limit free radicals, toxins and heavy metals. Serum is a very complex product and only a small percentage of the components have been fully identified. Therefore it remains the most effective growth product for cell culture available today. The blood is removed from the fetus by aseptic cardiac puncture; this process is carried out in special areas within the abattoir to reduce the possibility of bacterial contamination which can result in the presence of endotoxin in the serum. The raw FBS is then carefully centrifuged to separate the blood cells from the serum frozen and then shipped to our production facilities for further processing. The raw serum is collected from EU and USDA approved areas. Each manufactured batch is rigorously controlled and fully traceable from the production back to the slaughterhouse. Certificate of Analysis available for each batch
