Fetal Bovine Serum, Brazil, Ultra Low IgG, 500 ml

Ultra low IgG fetal bovine serum (FBS) is a specialized type of FBS that has been processed to significantly reduce the levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG). This is achieved through a chromatographic process that lowers IgG concentrations to less than 5 μg/mL.

Key characteristics of ultra low IgG FBS include:

• Minimal IgG levels: Ensures reduced interference in experiments where IgG could affect result.
  
• Full biological activity: Despite the reduction in IgG, the serum retains its essential growth-promoting properties.
  
• Consistency: Manufactured to provide uniform performance across different batches.
  

Applications of ultra low IgG FBS include:

• Antibody production: Reduces background interference in antibody assays.
  
• Virus and viral response studies: Minimizes IgG-related effects in virology research.
  
• Cell-surface epitope studies: Supports research on cell surface markers without IgG interference.
  
• IgG-dependent cell cytotoxicity assays: Ensures accurate results in cytotoxicity testing.
  
• Ligand-receptor studies: Facilitates studies on receptor interactions by minimizing IgG presence.
  

This type of serum is particularly useful in experiments where the presence of IgG could interfere with the results, allowing for more precise and reliable outcomes.
