This serum is derived from whole blood of healthy young lambs.

This is pooled human serum obtained from normal, clotted blood.

This serum is collected from Type AB human blood.

This serum is collected from Type AB human blood.

This serum is collected from Type AB human blood.

Paraformaldehyde Solution

This serum is processed from whole blood collected from a controlled herd of young horses. Each animal is routinely screened for Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA). Donor Horse Serum is suitable for use in diagnostic assays, as a supplement in mycoplasma growth and assay media and for culturing hematopoietic stem cells and neuronal cells.

This serum is derived from the blood of healthy adult animals. Rabbit serum is used to support cultures of Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease.

The antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. This solution contains 10,000 units/mL of penicillin and 10,000 µg/mL of streptomycin.

Amphotericin B is a polyene antifungal antibiotic from Streptomyces sp. It has a high affinity for sterols, primarily ergosterols, of fungal and bacterial cell membranes. It is an antibiotic solution effective against yeast and other fungi. Amphotericin B may be toxic to some insect cell types. Amphotericin B, is an antimycotic.

G418 Sulfate is an aminoglycoside related to Gentamicin and is toxic to bacteria, yeast,higher plants, mammalian cells, protozoans and helminths. The resistance genes are located on transposons Tn601(903) and Tn5 and are bacterial in derivation, but they can be expressed in eukaryotic cells. By introducing these genes into cells, resistance to G418 Sulfate is conferred. G418 Sulfate is an effective selecting agent utilized in killing prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic complex produced by fermentation of Micromonospora purpurea or M. echinospora. It is a mixture of 3 major components designated as C1 (C₂₁H₄₃N₅O₇), C1a (C₁₉H₃₉N5O), and C2 (C₂₀H₄₁N₅O₇). Gentamicin is used as the sulfate salt. Each component consists of five basic nitrogens and requires five equivalents of sulfuric acid per mole of gentamicin base. Gentamicin sulfate is a broad spectrum antibiotic. It inhibits the growth of a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms, including strains resistant to tetracycline, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, and colistin, particularly strains of Pseudomonas, Proteus, Staphylococcus, and Streptococcus. It is effective against mycoplasma as well.

Gentamicin Reagent Solution is effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as mycoplasma.

This serum is obtained from pooled, normal clotted human blood.

This serum is produced from whole blood collected from healthy adult animals.

Goat Serum is used as a supplement to cell culture media. Goat Serum provides a broad spectrum of macromolecules, carrier proteins for lipoid substances and trace elements, attachment and spreading factors, low molecular weight nutrients, and hormones and growth factors that promote cell growth and health. Be certain to maintain Good Cell Culture Practice, and maintain sterility of cultures that require media supplementation.

These balanced salt tablets are specifically formulated for Immunoassay procedures.

Bulk powder, easily weighed to make custom batch sizes.

(ECGS)
From Bovine Brain
Lyophilized powder with streptomycin sulfate.
ECGS is a broad culture medium growth supplement containing several growth factors which supports the growth of mammalian vascular endothelial cells and can be used in replacement of cell feeder layers in support of hybridoma clonal growth. It is isolated from bovine brain by a modification of the method of Maciag.
