Dialyzed Fetal Bovine Serum (D-FBS)
Dialyzed Fetal Bovine Serum (D-FBS) provides more consistency among the cell culture experiments, especially the studies requiring a more defined environment of small molecules. The dialysis process eliminates/ reduces the concentration of low molecular weight components such as antibiotics, nucleotides, amino acids as well as hormones
Description
Background
Dialyzed Fetal Bovine Serum (D-FBS) provides more consistency among the cell culture experiments. That especially stands out in studies requiring a more defined environment of small molecules. moreover, The dialysis process eliminates/ reduces the concentration of low molecular weight components. That includes antibiotics, nucleotides, amino acids, hormones, salts, as well as various small proteins in the serum.
PurMaTM Dialyzed FBS is Free of Tetracycline and other Antibiotics.
PurMaTM Dialyzed FBS (DFBS)
- PurMaTM Premium FBS is USA origin.
- We perform the dialysis using the 3500 Dalton (3.5 kDa) dialysis tube. The procedure carries out against 10X 10-liter PBS (pH 7.4). At the end, the dialyzed FBS sterilized by 0.1 µM filters for three times.
- The parent FBS Has gone through gamma irradiation as well as heat inactivation process.
- PurMa Biologics performs vigorous analysis following the dialysis which results in and certificate of analysis.
- Free of Mycoplasma, steroids and hormones, and other pathogens.
- Acceptable level of endotoxin (10 mg/Dl) and hemoglobin (20 mg/Dl).
- Due to the loss of small growth factors and other essential elements below the size of 3.5 kDa we recommend using 15-20% DFBS in your media to make sure of cultured cell well beings.

Review: I have worked directly with PurMa biologics on a number of projects ongoing in my lab. I find the media and the specialty Lipid Depleted Serum to be high quality and very consistent among batches, which is critical to our adipogenesis projects using primary stem cells. Also, the service from PurMa is outstanding for my lab.

Review: I started my lab using the regular Gibco media components. We have shifted to Purma past 6 months and see no difference in the quality of our cell culture. Simply saying that Purma is cheaper, quicker to deliver and as good as Gibco. The best part was that Purma customized several media for our fish cell lines which was really helpful. Lastly, Seif walked through the customization of media over Zoom, that gave a lot of confidence for using those media solutions.

Review: We bought Premium FBS and DMEM cell culture media from PurMa Biologics. We are using them for several mammalian cell line and primary cell culture and the cell growth is perfectly fine. We are totally satisfied with the product quality. Importantly as local vendor, we can have the product available as per our demand ASAP.

Review: Reliable and dependable products. We purchased lipid-depleted FBS (LD-FBS) from PurMa Biologics and it worked great. We cross-checked the lipid content in the serum by GC-MS and Triglyceride assay and as advertised, did not find any lipids in the FBS.
