Fetal bovine serum is derived from the blood drawn from a bovine fetus via a closed system of collection at the slaughterhouse. The globular protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a major component of fetal bovine serum. Besides BSA, fetal bovine serum is a rich source of growth and attachment factors, lipids, hormones, nutrients and ...
The best known representative of carrier proteins is serum albumin, [citation needed] the most abundant protein in the blood plasma of adult animals. Fetuin is more abundant in fetal blood, hence the name "fetuin" (from Latin, fetus). Fetal bovine serum contains more fetuin than albumin, while adult serum contains more albumin than fetuin.

Such convalescent serum is a form of immunotherapy. [citation needed] Serum is also used in protein electrophoresis, due to the lack of fibrinogen which can cause false results. [citation needed] Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is rich in growth factors and is frequently added to growth media used for eukaryotic cell culture.
I know Wikipedia is not a forum, however I have a question (as a biologist) whose answer could possibly be added to this article. Why are cells serum-starved (eg. quite often for 24h) before an experiment? What is the effect of serum that can affect the results and conclusions of an experiment? 155.207.86.45 07:30, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Fetal Bovine Serum increases cellular growth and plating efficiency. [4] Impacts/prevalence. In 2020, there was an estimated total of 684,996 deaths caused by breast ...
However, alternative media compositions, including the use of fetal bovine serum as well as defined growth factor additives, have been developed to promote the differentiation toward mesoderm and endoderm lineages. [43] [44] [45]
