Country of Origin :
The country in which the serum was taken from the donor/animal.
This serum is sourced from france.
Storage conditions :Store at -20°C
Shelf life :5 years
Recommended use :
-Respect storage conditions of the serum
-Do not use the serum after its expiry date
-Store serum in an area protected from light
-Manipulate serum in aseptic conditions (e.g. : under laminar air flow)
-Wear clothes adapted to the manipulation of serum to avoid contamination (e.g. : gloves, mask, hygiene cap, overall…)
-In order to preserve all serum qualities, it is recommended to thaw out the flask, to aliquote, then to re-freeze the produced flasks rather than to thaw out and re-freeze the flask at each use.
-It is recommended to use the serum immediately after its thaw out. However, if it is not useful, it is possible to store thaw out serum, at +2°C / +8°C, until 26 weeks without significant decrease of its performances in cell culture.
The product is intended to be used in vitro, in laboratory only. Do not use it in therapy, human or veterinary applications.
Note:
The raw serum may be gamma irradiated before filtration for different reasons:
-Importation regulation
-Exportation necessity
-Technical or quality aspects.
To be informed if your batch is concerned by the gamma irradiation before filtration, please contact Zeta-life
