Boost Research Consistency with Biowest FBS:
Frustrated with inconsistent cell culture results due to unreliable FBS? Biowest offers a premium solution! Our traceable, high-quality FBS empowers researchers to achieve reproducible cell growth and superior performance.
Does FBS Quality Really Matter? Absolutely!
Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a vital yet often underestimated component of cell culture. While some researchers might use any available FBS, its quality significantly impacts your results. Inconsistent FBS can introduce unwanted variability, jeopardizing the reproducibility of your research. Inconsistent FBS quality can introduce hidden variables, leading to:
- Unreliable Data: Variability in cell growth, function, and response to stimuli can skew your research findings.
- Wasted Time & Resources: Inconclusive results lead to repeated experiments, costing valuable time and resources.
- Difficulty Reproducing Results: Replicating experiments becomes challenging when a key factor (FBS quality) is uncontrolled.
Biowest FBS: The Solution for Reliable Cell Culture
Biowest FBS tackles these challenges by offering exceptional quality and traceability you can trust:
- Unmatched Traceability: Trackable back to the source cow, ensuring consistent composition and performance across batches.
- Enhanced Reproducibility: Minimize variability and achieve reliable results across your research, facilitating publication-quality data.
- Superior Cell Growth: Supports optimal growth and function for diverse cell lines, allowing you to focus on your research goals.
- Rigorously Tested: Passes strict cell culture tests (growth, plating efficiency, cloning efficiency) using established cell lines (HELA, L929, SP2/0-AG14, MRC-5).
- Minimized Endotoxin: Lower endotoxin levels (≤10 EU/mL) for reduced cell stress and improved experimental outcomes.
- Reduced Hemoglobin: Low hemoglobin content (≤25 mg/dL) minimizes interference with downstream assays.
- Mycoplasma & Virus Free: Ensures a clean and safe cell culture environment.
- Trusted by Leading Institutions: Widely used in top universities (NUS, CSI) and R&D labs across Southeast Asia.
- ISO-Certified Manufacturing: Produced in facilities adhering to stringent ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485:2012 standards.
All our serum are sourced from BSE , FMD and BVD regions. Our very own Singapore Veterinary Authority has inspected all documentation and permits before the final product reaches your lab.
