Product description:

Omega Scientific’s Lipid Depleted Fetal Bovine Serum is obtained by using fumed silica precipitation method for removing lipids. The fumed silica powder is mixed into the serum and centrifuged. The lipids attach to the silica in the pellet and the supernatant contains only the serum.  After treatment the level of cholesterol is < 10mg/100ml. Lipid Depleted FBS is suitable for lipid-metabolism studies or Arteriosclerosis research. This product is also known as Delipidated FBS. Lipid-Depleted Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is specifically designed for cell culture applications where lipid content may interfere with experimental outcomes. By removing lipids, this serum reduces variability caused by lipid-mediated signaling pathways and metabolic processes, providing a more controlled environment for sensitive assays. Ideal for studies in lipid metabolism, lipoprotein research, and other lipid-sensitive processes, this specialized serum supports optimal cell growth while minimizing unwanted lipid-related influences. It is widely used in research involving obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and lipid-related metabolic disorders.
