  • Is your Serum a
    Forgery?

    We are excited to announce that Cell Culture Dish has published a thought-provoking article titled "Is your serum a forgery? The painful truth about the importance of the origin of Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) in research."
    We hope that this article will stimulate important discussions within the scientific community and raise awareness about the critical importance of using high-quality FBS in cell culture experiments. We encourage researchers to read the full article and share their thoughts and experiences with us. Together, we can ensure that the integrity of scientific research is maintained and that the quality of FBS used in experiments is held to the highest standards.
