Fetal bovine serum (fbs)
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is a commonly used cell culture supplement derived from the blood of bovine fetuses. It contains a complex mixture of proteins, growth factors, and other nutrients that support the growth and proliferation of cells in vitro. FBS is a core component in the maintenance and expansion of various cell lines, including mammalian, insect, and microbial cultures.

The cell lines HH (Cat# ACC 707; RRID:CVCL_1280), and HG-3 (Cat# ACC 765; RRID:CVCL_Y547) were obtained from the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ, Braunschweig, Germany) and cultivated in RPMI-1640 Medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptavidin (P0781, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). DERL-2 (Cat# ACC 531; RRID:CVCL_2016) was obtained from DSMZ and cultivated in RPMI-1640 Medium with 20% fetal bovine serum, 1% penicillin/streptavidin, and 0.02 ng/µL recombinant IL-2 (200-02, Peprotech, Hamburg, Germany). Oci-Ly1 (Cat# ACC 722; RRID:CVCL_1879) was obtained from DSMZ and cultivated in RPMI-1640 Medium with 20% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptavidin.
All cell lines were cultured in a humidified atmosphere at 37 °C and 5% CO2. Passaging did not exceed ten times after thawing. Mycoplasma negativity was confirmed repeatedly using MycoSPY® Master Mix (M020, Biontex, Munich, Germany).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
