Introduction of three kinds of sediment in square petg media bottles
Serum is a commonly used nutrient substance when culturing cells, and the quality of serum is directly related to the growth status of cells. Sometimes we will find that there are flocculent sediments in the square petg media bottles . In fact, there is no need to be too nervous when this happens. These sediments are mainly the following three types of substances: 1. Fibrin: It is a relatively large precipitate that often appears, which can reach 1-2mm and can be observed with the naked eye. Because serum is collected and processed quickly at low temperatures, some fibrinogen (the soluble precursor to flocculent fibrin) remains dissolved during processing and will Fibrin precipitates from clotting in serum bottles.

This deposit looks like tiny black dots under an inverted microscope, which are often mis
