    Hi,Our lab at ********************* on 02/08/2023 paid Biowest USA $375 for their product S162TA-500, which was delivered and used by us for cell culture. However, our cell cultures stopped growing in the media with this component and started dying. When Biowest serum was replaced for analagous serum from a different company, cells recovered. While this is an unequivocal proof that their serum is bad, the company refused to reimburse us.

    Hello,

    I've attached the email correspondence with the customer along with the order details, from ****** Scientific to Biowest. 

    The customer purchased the product through a 3rd party, who placed a PO with us to ship directly to this customer. 

    The customer acknowledged in an email yesterday that they would be following up with ****** Scientific.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
