Human Serum, Type AB, Heat Inactivated

Human Serum AB has been proven to grow many human cell lines at a faster rate and with a smaller percentage of serum than mixed blood group serum.
Human serum AB is prepared from units of U.S. source plasma using only male AB blood group donors meeting health requirements established by 21CFR 640, subpart G. All approved donor units are tested and found non-reactive for Syphilis per 21CFR640.65 by FDA approved methods. Each source donor unit used is further tested and found negative for HBsAg (Hepatitis B Surface Antigen), anti-HCV (anti-Hepatitis C Virus), anti-HIV-1/2 (anti-Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 and 2), and HIV-1 antigen or HIV-1 NAT by FDA approved methods.
The individual donor units are converted into serum by defibrinating the plasma, pooled, filtered and bottled. The final serum product undergoes extensive quality control testing before it is released for distribution.
Human serum products should always be considered potentially infectious and handled accordingly. Although all of the source plasma units are tested and have been found negative for several virus antibodies and antigens, no known test method can offer complete assurance that products derived from human blood will not transmit infectious disease.
