Thermo Scientific™ Gibco™ Fetal Bovine Serum, ultra-low IgG, US origin, One Shot™ format

The Gibco™ Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), Ultra-Low IgG, US Origin is a specialty serum designed to meet the demands of specific cell culture applications where reduced immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels are critical. With low endotoxin and hemoglobin levels, as well as ultra-low IgG content, this serum supports basic research, specialty assays, and advanced manufacturing workflows.

Key Features

1. Ultra-Low IgG Levels:
   • Contains less than 5 µg/mL IgG, making it suitable for applications where low IgG content is critical, such as antibody production and immunological studies.
2. Low Contaminant Levels:
   • Endotoxin Level: ≤50 EU/mL (typically ≤10 EU/mL).
   • Hemoglobin Level: ≤25 mg/dL.
3. Secure Origin:
   • Sourced from the United States, ensuring compliance with stringent safety and biosecurity standards.
4. Flexible Formats:
   • Available in:
     • 500 mL Bottle (Catalog Number: 16250078) for large-scale applications.
     • 50 mL One Shot Format (Catalog Number: A3381901) for smaller-scale research and precision use.
5. Safety and Compliance:
   • Low or non-detectable bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) titer for enhanced safety.
   • Classified as a medical device in several countries. In regions where it is not regulated as a medical device, it is intended for laboratory use only.
