PurMa Biologics derives Premium Fetal Bovine Serum (P-FBS)  from the blood of the bovine fetus. Cell culture laboratories use FBS for growing eukaryotic especially mammalian cells. FBS contains undefined nutrition, growth factors as well. Therefore, it remains a wildly used supplement for cell culture. PurMa Biologics has developed and processes three main premium fetal bovine serums, each specialized for certain requirements in tissue culture.

Description

Premium Fetal Bovine Serum (P-FBS)

Background

Premium Fetal Bovine Serum (P-FBS) is derived from the blood of the bovine fetus. Cell culture laboratories use FBS for growing eukaryotic especially mammalian cells. FBS contains undefined nutrition, growth factors as well. Therefore, it remains a wildly used supplement for cell culture. PurMa Biologics has developed and processes three main premium fetal bovine serums, each specialized for certain requirements in tissue culture.

Our Serum Products

PurMa Biologics produces seven types of fetal bovine serums. The three following are considered premium:

  1. PurMaTM Premium Fetal Bovine Serum (P-FBS).
  2. PurMaTM Ultra-Premium Fetal Bovine Serum (UP-FBS).
  3. PurMaTM Endotoxin Depleted Fetal Bovine Serum (EDP-FBS).

PurMaTM Premium FBS

  • All three PurMaTM Premium FBS are of USA origin.
  • Have been gamma irradiated,
  • Have been heat inactivated.
  • have been vigorously analyzed with the certificate of analysis.

The major differences between P-FBS and UP-FBS

  • The source of the Blood and therefore:
  • Significant higher growth by UP-FBS compared to P-FBS
  • The depth of the analysis:
