Product Overview
Gamma irradiation is a process which involves exposing material to high energy gamma photons released by radioisotopes, such as cobalt 60. This energy is transferred from the photons to the products, and is responsible for organism inactivation by ionization of nucleic acid bonds. The irradiation of serum is intended to provide complete assurance of viral inactivation.
Thawing
We recommend thawing the serum at 2-8oC. However, if necessary, you may thaw the serum at room temperature. Swirl the bottles gently to mix the serum during the thawing process.
