Addressing the impact of different fetal bovine serum percentages on mesenchymal stem cells biological performance.

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are presently on the top of hierarchy in the field of stem cell therapy, due to their miraculous therapeutic abilities in diminishing the symptoms of many chronic diseases and initiating regeneration and repair for various damaged tissues and organs. The foremost initial step to reach high success rate in any MSCs based study is the optimization of culture growth media by establishing a suitable fetal bovine serum (FBS) percentage that suits the purpose of MSCs based experiment. Choosing the suitable FBS percentage is a controversial issue and merely depends on the researchers experience and suggested recommendations by the suppliers.
