Cytiva, SH30071.03M, HyClone™ Characterized FBS, U.S. origin Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Screened, 500 mL

Purchase orders with specific lot requests, quoted reserves and/or call off orders should be submitted through Customer Service. Each lot is screened by growing human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) over a minimum of three subculture generations with 10 percent serum. Human MSC are then observed for evidence of nutritional deficiency, cytotoxicity or morphological aberrations. The serum is tested in parallel with a control lot which has been demonstrated to support the growth of hMSC. HyClone™ Characterized Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is produced using true pool processing, which minimizes bottle-to-bottle variability. This FBS product is filtered through three sequential 100 nm (0.1 µm) pore size-rated filters. Each lot of FBS is subjected to virus panel testing according to 9 CFR 113.53. HyClone™ Characterized FBS is assayed for many components, including gamma globulin, glucose, and IgG. Additional treatments available including heat-inactivation and irradiation. Additional testing, including EMA-conforming testing, is also available. Temperature excursions happen, both in transport and on the bench. Storage condition effects on fetal bovine serum for cell culture whitepaper shows how HyClone™ serum maintain viable cell density and cell growth and stay within specification under various temperatures and timeframes.
