Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS)

(11 customer reviews)

Reproducibility and consistency regarding In vitro cell culture experiments is a matter of concern. The inconsistency in In vitro cell culture is related to batch-wise variations of biological materials, mainly the serum content. PurMa™ Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS) has far fewer fluctuations compared to other serums in the market. That is due to the vigorous analysis of this serum and, more importantly, the age of the fetus.

The inconsistency in In vitro cell culture is related to batch-wise variations of biological materials, mainly the serum content. PurMa™ Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS) has far less fluctuations compared to other serums in the market. That is due to the vigorous analysis of this serum and, more importantly, the age of the fetus.

    Review: I have worked directly with PurMa biologics on a number of projects ongoing in my lab. I find the media and the specialty Lipid Depleted Serum to be high quality and very consistent among batches, which is critical to our adipogenesis projects using primary stem cells. Also, the service from PurMa is outstanding for my lab.
