Rabbit Serum
Rabbit Serum is a nutrient-rich fluid derived from rabbit’s blood, but does not contain red blood cells or other clotting components. The composition of rabbit serum makes it the ideal blocking agent for biological and chemical research applications. Those applications include, but are not limited to:
- A cell culture medium (sterile serum only)
- Disease diagnosis
- Vaccine development
Biologos offers general (normal/ non-sterile) and customized serum that is collected from healthy rabbits, then prepared and tested.
Our quality control testing, tests for microbiological abnormalities, such as the presence of bacterial, fungal, and mycoplasma contamination and viruses. Once the absence of contamination has been confirmed and approved, batches of serum are prepared for the packaging and distribution process.
This process begins with the serum being thawed under controlled conditions and sterile filtered. Sterile filtration involves the serums being filtered through a series of filters in descending pore size, utilizing 0.2 micron filters for the final filtration step. Filling takes place in a laminar flow hood and a certified clean room to maintain ISO Class 5 conditions. The Rabbit Serum is aseptically dispensed into gamma irradiated, sterile PETG or HDPE bottles. Filled containers are then labeled, frozen, and maintained at temperatures less than -5°C to preserve the product quality.
Each batch of serum meets the USDA standards for animal products, Biologos’ standard for raw materials, is traceable to date and collection location, and are processed using:
- Sterile filtering
- Irradiation
- Heat inactivation
Biologos’ serums are trusted and have been used in the advancements of animal health and diagnostic labs globally for more than 40 years.
Shipping
Rabbit Serum is shipped frozen by truck or next day air insulated containers packed with dry ice.
Storage and Handling
Biologos stores and handles all products in sterile environments. For filling, the Rabbit Serum is aseptically dispensed into gamma irradiated, sterile PETG or HDPE bottles. Filled containers are then labeled, frozen, and maintained at temperatures less than -5°C to preserve the product quality.
Rabbit serum’s unique composition makes it an ideal blocking agent for biological and chemical research applications, the most common applications are:
- Cell culture medium (sterile serum only)
- Disease diagnosis
- Vaccine development
