Frequently Asked Questions
What certifications come with US Origin FBS?
US origin FBS is collected under USDA oversight with APHIS (Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service) certification confirming country of origin and animal health status. It is EMEA-accepted and comes with full documentation including CoA, BSE/TSE risk assessment, and Certificate of Origin. This regulatory package is directly usable in EU and US regulatory submissions.
Is US Origin FBS suitable for ATMP or vaccine manufacturing?
Yes — US origin FBS with USDA/APHIS documentation is accepted under both FDA and EMA regulatory frameworks for ATMPs and vaccines. The BSE risk is documented as controlled/negligible for the US cattle population. For applications requiring the absolute lowest BSE risk certification, Australian origin FBS (OIE-certified BSE-free) is the premium alternative.
How does US Origin FBS compare to South American FBS in quality?
Both origins provide equivalent growth promotion and quality parameters. US origin offers stronger regulatory documentation (USDA/APHIS), while South American FBS (Brazil/Argentina) is EMEA-accepted and typically more cost-effective. The performance in standard cell culture is comparable — origin choice is primarily regulatory and budget-driven.
Can I get FBS US Origin heat inactivated or with low endotoxin specification?
Heat inactivated US Origin FBS is available — please specify when requesting a quote. Low endotoxin (<1 EU/mL) US Origin FBS is available on request depending on current stock. Contact our team with your specific requirements.
