Capricorn Scientific
Capricorn Scientific is a German manufacturer specializing in cell culture products for research, diagnostics, and biopharmaceutical production. The company is widely recognized for its expertise in animal sera, with strict quality control, lot consistency, and full traceability.
Capricorn supplies Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) from various origins (South America, USA, Australia) but also specialty sera (heat-inactivated, charcoal-stripped, exosome-depleted, and low-endotoxin formats). Its innovative FBS Minis streamline workflows, reduce contamination risks, and minimize freeze–thaw cycles.
The portfolio further includes cell culture media, available in liquid and powder forms. Alongside classical media such as DMEM, RPMI, and MEM, Capricorn produces specialty formulations for cytogenetics (AmnioPrime, LymphoPrime, MarrowPrime) and recombinant protein production (CHO-ONE Media System). Serum-free and chemically defined media support large-scale biomanufacturing and meet regulatory standards, manufactured in dedicated facilities to avoid cross-contamination.
Complementing this are reagents and supplements, including buffers (PBS, HBSS), cryopreservation solutions, antibiotics and anti-mycoplasma reagents (Myco Xpert), transfection reagents, and protein fractions like BSA.
With an ISO 9001-certified, cGMP-compliant facility and dedicated cleanrooms, Capricorn Scientific delivers reliable, high-quality solutions for global cell culture applications.
