What our customers say about PurMa Biologics
Feedback from labs we supply, across our full catalogue.
We have been working with PurMa biologics for the past several years, we buy cell culture related media like DMEM F12 and EMEM and Fetal Bovine Serum. We appreciate the high quality and reasonable price, and great customer service.
We purchase everything we need related to cell and tissue culture from PurMa, reagents like: DMEM, LL15, EMEM, FBS, trypsin, antibiotics mix100X and... Always great quality, fast processing and shipping. We are totally satisfied.
Very fast, efficient, and economic service. Great for new PIs like me.
it is reliable vendor!
We always buy our agarose from PurMa and have never been disappointed.
I recently had the pleasure of interacting with Dr. Seif Azadi from Purma Biologics, and I cannot thank him enough for his expertise and prompt assistance. His deep knowledge and dedication were instrumental in meeting our laboratory’s needs with remarkable efficiency. We ordered FBS, DMEM, and Trypsin from Purma Biologics, and I’m thrilled to report that all the products have performed exceptionally well. They consistently deliver reproducible results, significantly enhancing the reliability of our experiments. Thank you, Team Purma Biologics, for your good products and support!
Frequently asked questions
What working concentration should I use for Eukaryotic Cell Culture Suited Antibiotics?
Most antibiotic mixes are supplied as a 100X stock, giving a 1 in 100 dilution into complete medium. Check the Certificate of Analysis for the specific lot, since concentration varies between formulations.
Should antibiotics be used routinely in cell culture?
Most quality guidance advises against it. Continuous use masks low level contamination, allows poor aseptic technique to go unnoticed, and can select for resistant organisms. They are appropriate for high risk work such as primary tissue rather than as a standing habit.
Will this prevent yeast or fungal contamination?
Not unless it contains an antimycotic. Penicillin and streptomycin act on bacteria only. Preventing fungi or yeast requires amphotericin B or a similar antimycotic, and even then technique matters more than chemistry.
How should Eukaryotic Cell Culture Suited Antibiotics be stored?
Frozen at minus 20 degrees C and aliquoted on first thaw. Activity declines with repeated freeze and thaw cycles, which shows up as contamination creeping back into cultures that were previously clean.
Is it sterility and endotoxin tested?
Yes. Every lot is filtered and tested, and a Certificate of Analysis is issued per lot and available on request.
