Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS)

Fetal Bovine Serum

Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a highly sought-after cell culture supplement derived from the blood of fetal cows. It is widely used in scientific research, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals due to its rich composition of essential growth factors, proteins, and hormones that support the healthy growth of cells in vitro. FBS is known for its ability to enhance cell viability and proliferation, making it a crucial component in cell culture media across various applications such as vaccine production, drug development, and stem cell research.

Key Properties of Fetal Bovine Serum:

  • High Nutrient Content: Rich in proteins, vitamins, and growth factors.
  • Sterility: Filtered and tested to ensure the absence of contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, and mycoplasma.
  • Low Endotoxin Levels: Ensures minimal interference with cellular processes.
  • Batch-to-Batch Consistency: Provides reliable performance across experiments.
  • Supports a Wide Range of Cells: Ideal for mammalian cell culture, including stem cells and primary cells.
