Human serum - filtered human serum.
Calcium chloride is added to human plasma for coagulation. The cellular and solid components are removed by centrifugation. The serum is then washed, concentrated and finally filtered.
Advantages of human serum:
Constant quality
High safety
No interfering animal components
Filtered human serum for cell culture
The human serum from Bio&SELL comes exclusively from healthy blood donors from certified donation institutes in Europe. Every single batch is checked, documented and tested for viral infections. This provides our customers with maximum safety and transparency. Bio&SELL offers both pooled and serum from single donors.
Product descriptions of the human blood sera:
Off-the-clot serum - without anticoagulants, naturally clotted.
Obtained from human whole blood collected without anticoagulants. Coagulation occurs naturally at room temperature. The blood cake is then removed and the serum purified by depth and membrane filters. Available pooled or from single donors (for metabolic studies).
Human serum RG-F (rich in growth factors) - contains many growth factors.
Contains more human growth factors than off-the-clot serum and is therefore recommended for tissue engineering and cell differentiation studies.
Human serum - filtered human serum.
Calcium chloride is added to human plasma for coagulation. Cellular and solid components are removed by centrifugation. The serum is then washed, concentrated and finally filtered.
Human serum AB male - guaranteed to contain no anti-A and anti-B antibodies.
This serum contains only plasma from donors with blood group AB and is therefore free of anti-A and anti-B antibodies. This serum is especially recommended for immunological and haematopoietic studies.

In which areas is human serum used?
Cell therapy, immunotherapy research, tissue engineering, etc.
In which concentration should human serum be used?
We recommend a concentration between 5% and 20% for our human serums within the cell culture.
How does the adaptation of the cells to the human serum take place?
We recommend a stepwise adaptation. Cultivate the cells within the first 4-6 days with a 10% mixture of FBS and human serum (5% human serum and 5% FBS). Subsequently, you can cultivate the cells with 5-20% human serum.
