Application
Human AB serum is used in tissue engineering, transplantation and cell therapy applications for the expansion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) from adipose tissue or mesenchymal stromal cells from human bone marrow; for standardized limbal epithelial stem cell graft generation and transplantation; for ex vivo expansion of NK cells from peripheral blood in Hematopoeitic Stem Cell Expansion Medium; and for upgrading pretransplant human islet culture technology.
Human Serum has been used: as a component of phosphate-buffered saline with Tween® detergent (PBST) in bridging enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), as a mock biological sample for assessing the performance of paper-based ELISA assay with complex biological samples, as a diluent to create a dilution series of the baseline sample for the generation of standard curve for NISTmAb spiked into serum, as well as for multiple myeloma (MM) patient sample MM2232
Biochem/physiol Actions
Human AB serum is typically obtained by allowing whole blood to clot naturally, which is known as Off-The-Clot (OTC) serum. Human serum obtained from clotted whole blood is preferred as it usually contains higher levels and a more diverse range of growth factors for optimal cell growth. Human serum from blood-type AB donors lacks antibodies specific for both A and B blood-type antigens. This makes it a universal donor serum that is suitable for various cell culture types including human stem cell lines.
Packaging
Packaging may vary for different batches due to short supply of the bottles used to pack this product. The presence or lack of shrink wrap around the cap of the bottle doesn’t impact product integrity/sterility of the product.
Warning
Each donor is tested for and found non-reactive for Hepatitis B & C and non-reactive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antibody by ELISA. Nevertheless, products of human origin should be considered potentially infectious and handled accordingly.
Analysis Note
Endotoxin tested
Other Notes
It is not unusual for our human serum products to be cloudy. This product is from pooled serum and cloudiness indicates that lipids are present in the serum. No clear, lipid-free human serum products are available.

In worldwide conditions of increasingly antibiotic-resistant hospital infections, it is important to research alternative therapies. Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus bacteria naturally prey on Gram-negative pathogens, including antibiotic-resistant strains and so B. bacteriovorus have been proposed as "living antibiotics" to combat antimicrobially-resistant pathogens.

Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) make up the majority of lymphoma diagnoses and represent a very diverse set of malignancies. We sought to identify kinases uniquely up-regulated in different NHL subtypes. Using multiplexed inhibitor bead-mass spectrometry (MIB/MS), we found Tyro3 was uniquely

Amphiphilicity in ɑ-helical antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is recognized as a signature of potential membrane activity. Some AMPs are also strongly immunomodulatory: LL37-DNA complexes potently amplify Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) activation in immune cells and exacerbate autoimmune diseases. The rules governing

Gemcitabine has been considered a first-line chemotherapy agent for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. However, the initial response rate of gemcitabine is low and chemoresistance occurs frequently. Aptamers can be effectively internalized into cancer cells via binding to target molecules

TLR sensing of pathogens triggers monocyte activation to initiate the host innate immune response to infection. Monocytes can dynamically adapt to different TLR agonists inducing different patterns of inflammatory response, and the sequence of exposure to TLRs can dramatically modulate
