Standard FBS of various origins

In order to create in vivo conditions for in vitro cell culture, serum is often added to the cell culture medium. Serum serves as a source of growth factors, lipids, hormones and minerals for the cells. Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is particularly rich in growth factors and contains few antibodies that could interfere with cell cultivation. This unique composition makes FBS one of the most important supplements for cell proliferation in in vitro cell culture.

FBS is naturally derived as a by-product of the meat and dairy industry. We obtain our FBS from various countries where it is sourced under strict quality controls. However, the quality of the serum varies according to its origin. The strictest quality requirements are met in the USA, which means that our FBS US Origin offers you the highest quality and safety.

When is our FBS US Origin suitable for you?

The import (or re-import) of FBS from South America or serum from South Africa into the USA is not permitted. This also applies to derivatives (biopharmaceuticals, tissue engineering products, FBS-containing cell cultures and cell lines) that are obtained or produced with South American FBS. The export of derivatives produced with FBS from the USA or Australia and New Zealand is permitted. The direct re-import of US serum from e.g. the EU is often very difficult. The US import authorities refuse to allow imports into the USA for reasons that are not always obvious and demand extensive documentation. If you are considering importing to the USA as described above, please contact the relevant customs authority, as we cannot provide any binding legal information. However, we can obtain preliminary information from the relevant authorities for you.
