Premium Fetal Horse Serum (P-FHS)
Premium Fetal Horse Serum (P-FHS) is derived from the blood of the horse fetus. Cell culture laboratories use FHS for growing mostly mammalian eukaryotic cells. FHS contains undefined nutrition growth factors as well. Therefore, it remains a widely used supplement for cell culture. PurMa Biologics has developed and processes three main premium fetal horse serums, each specialized for certain requirements in tissue culture.
