Fötales Rinderserum (FBS)
Fetal bovine serum sourced standardly from South America — with alternative origins (Australia, US, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, New Zealand) on request — processed and quality-controlled in Germany. Nine specification grades — Standard, Premium, Low Endotoxin, Ultra Low IgG, Low IgG, Heat Inactivated, Gamma Irradiated, Tet-Free and ES Cell Pre-Tested — with full batch documentation, batch reservation and no minimum order quantity for pharma, biotech, CRO and academic research.
Flexible Sourcing, Made in Germany
Standardly sourced from South America, with alternative origins on request. Processed, filtered and quality-controlled in Germany, with full CoA, CoO and TSE/BSE documentation.
Nine Specification Grades
From cost-effective Standard to specialised Ultra Low IgG and ES Cell Pre-Tested grades, matched to your exact application.
No Minimum Order
Flexible packaging sizes and batch reservation, with no MOQ — suitable for both research-scale and production-scale demand.
Cold-Chain Delivery
Temperature-controlled shipment across the EU and UK, with mycoplasma and BVDV testing on every batch.
Fetal bovine serum for every stage of cell culture
Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), also known as fetal calf serum, is the most widely used serum supplement in mammalian cell culture, providing growth factors, hormones and nutrients that support reliable cell proliferation. SeamlessBio sources FBS standardly from South America — with alternative origins available on request — and processes every batch in Germany across nine specification grades, so you can match serum quality precisely to your application — from routine cell expansion to GMP-adjacent biopharmaceutical and ATMP-related workflows.
Because endotoxin levels, IgG content, and viral inactivation status all affect downstream cell behaviour differently, choosing the correct FBS grade is a core part of assay reproducibility and regulatory documentation, not just a sourcing decision.
Typical applications
- Routine mammalian cell culture and expansion
- Hybridoma and monoclonal antibody production
- Stem cell and iPSC culture
- Vaccine production and biopharma research
- ATMP-related and cell therapy workflows
- CRO and contract research applications
