This product is a Heat Inactivated Human AB Serum (Pooled) collected as whole blood donations with blood type AB. The blood is allowed to spontaneously clot and the serum component is extracted. After cell culture tested for mycoplasma, endotoxin, and sterility, it undergoes a heat inactivation process to destroy complement activity. This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications.
