General description
Bovine serum (BS) is considered a cost-effective choice than fetal bovine serum (FBS). It can also be preserved stable for a long time.
Application
Bovine Serum, Adult has been used:
- to treat silicone square to prepare it for the biofilm assay for in vitro biofilm growth conditions
- in cell culture as a component in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium for digesting articular cartilage and proximal metacarpals
- as a lubricating solution in hydrodynamic analysis and to imitate the synovial joints
Biochem/physiol Actions
Adult bovine serum (BS) possesses bactericidal activity against Helicobacter pylori. Heat-treated BS can be used as the best serum source of H. pylori culture medium.
