Collection and Processing:

Origin:

The Rabbit Serum used by Biologos meets all of the USDA requirements for animal products. All Rabbit Serum is traceable back to the date and location of collection. In addition, all of the Rabbit Serum used for processing must meet Biologos’ strict quality requirements for raw material.

Filtration:

Approved lots of raw Rabbit Serum are thawed under controlled conditions and sterile filtered by a process that uses 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 clean room certified to maintain ISO Class 5 conditions. The Rabbit Serum is aseptically dispensed into gamma irradiated, sterile PETG or HDPE bottles. Filled containers are labeled, frozen, and then maintained at temperatures less than -5oC to preserve the product quality.
