Serum is commonly added to cell culture media to support cell growth and serves multiple essential functions: it provides macromolecular proteins and low-molecular-weight nutrients—including amino acids, carbohydrates, and vitamins; enhances the buffering capacity of the medium; binds or neutralizes toxic substances; reduces oxidative stress and apoptosis; and supplies growth-promoting factors that aid cellular adaptation to the culture environment.
It is suitable for culturing various cancer cell lines, human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells, leukemic cells, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, melanoma cells, macrophages, and certain primary and other sensitive cell types.
Manufactured under ISO 13485 QMS and in compliance with applicable cGMP guidelines.
