The Fetal Bovine Serum Market Place
Premium US Sourced Fetal Bovine Serum at Highly Competitive Terms and Prices
Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a key component of most tissue culture media and for the most part a commodity product like the media itself. For the vast majority of labs FBS selection criteria are centered around its country of origin, its release testing specifications, its bottle to bottle consistency, and most importantly how well it
performs in your assays.
Though FBS is more difficult to control than media due to the fact that it is a natural product there is very little reason for it to be priced any different than standard media.
However, FBS pricing is often more like that of scarce resources (e.g., platinum) or intellectual property (e.g., pharmaceutical drugs). Some of this price variance is due to supply fluctuations but for the most part it is due to opportunistic price increases by major distributors. In fact some brands of serum simply put different labels on
serum bottles that come from the same supplier.
