SeraCon and Basematrix products are both formulated from human plasma and processed to resemble a serum like state, however the processing differs slightly based on intended use of the material. Refer to Table 1: Diluent Reference Guide for details. SeraCon is recommended for use in serological assays. It is also preferred when the intended application requires a matrix that is either free of lipids or hormones. BaseMatrix is recommended for use in molecular-based assays as a negative diluent for control and calibrator formulations.
