Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS)
Reproducibility and consistency regarding In vitro cell culture experiments is a matter of concern. The inconsistency in In vitro cell culture is related to batch-wise variations of biological materials, mainly the serum content. PurMa™ Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS) has far fewer fluctuations compared to other serums in the market. That is due to the vigorous analysis of this serum and, more importantly, the age of the fetus.
Description
Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS)
Background
Reproducibility and consistency regarding In vitro cell culture experiments is a matter of concern. The inconsistency in In vitro cell culture is related to batch-wise variations of biological materials, mainly the serum content. PurMa™ Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS) has far less fluctuations compared to other serums in the market. That is due to the vigorous analysis of this serum and, more importantly, the age of the fetus.
PurMa Biologics has three main premium fetal horse serums
- PurMa™ Premium Fetal Horse Serum (P-FHS).
- PurMa™ Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS).
- PurMa™ Endotoxin Depleted Fetal Horse Serum (EDP-FHS).
The Major Preference of UP-FHS Over P-FHS
- The source of the Blood and therefore:
- Moreover, the significant higher growth by UP-FBS compared to P-FHS
- Also, the depth of the analysis
- Besides, the parameters are evaluated. This helps with the consistency of analysis using various Lots.
PurMa Biologics routinely tests PurMa™Ultra-Premium Fetal Horse Serum (UP-FHS) for the following elements. That is of course, besides the routine tests which is provided in the “Serum Analysis Tab “.
