Fetal Calf Serum, Iron supplemented Bovine Serum

Fetal-Calf Serum, Iron supplemented Bovine Serum is a cost-effective, iron-supplemented mixture of our high-quality fetal bovine serum (FBS) and calf serum (Bovine Calf Serum, BCS). It is supplemented with additional additives and a proprietary iron complex, and matches or outperforms the cell growth capabilities of FBS in a broad range of cell lines. Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is widely used in eukaryotic cell culture, typically as a supplement for growth media. Fetal bovine serum contains nutritional and embryonic growth promoting factors that are essential for a successful cell culture. Further, fetal bovine serum contains various small molecules, such as, e.g., amino acids, lipids, sugars, and hormones.

Application Notes

Fetal Bovine Serum is used in a broad range of cell culture applications. FBS provides many non-defined growth promoting and survival enhancing factor to cells in culture.
