Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), Exosome Depleted, is developed with a method to eliminate exosomes gently and efficiently. As FBS naturally contains a considerable amount of exosomes, there is the potential risk of interference with the exosomes secreted by the cells, which is a critical problem in exosome research. Compared with non-depleted FBS, the cell culture performance of FBS Exosome Depleted is outstanding. Therefore, FBS Exosome Depleted is highly suitable for exosome secretion research and cell-cell communication studies.
FBS, also fetal calf serum (FCS), is the most frequently utilized supplement in cell culture media. It improves various cell culture applications through its high levels of embryonic growth-promoting factors, which are essential for successful cell culturing. Further, FBS contains various small molecules, such as amino acids, sugars, lipids, and hormones. FBS is the blood component obtained after coagulation and removal of cellular components.
This unique and comprehensive mix makes FBS one of the most essential supplements for supporting cell growth and proliferation for in vitro cell culture. The fetal bovine serum for cell culture supports most cell lines and undergoes strict quality controls. This product is collected in South America.
