Descripción

General description

Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) is a globular protein derived from bovine blood plasma. It is widely utilized as a standard in protein quantitation assays due to its stability and lack of interference with the assay components.​

The USP BSA for Protein Quantitation standard serves as a calibration reference in assays such as the Bradford and Bicinchoninic Acid (BCA) assays, ensuring accurate and reproducible measurement of protein concentrations in various research and clinical applications.

The USP biologics proteins category provides critical standards and reference materials necessary for the development and manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. These proteins, which can be naturally derived or genetically engineered, are essential in treating various diseases and conditions, ensuring that they meet quality, safety, and efficacy standards.

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) provides quality standards for biologics to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality throughout the manufacturing process. These standards assist manufacturers in adhering to regulatory requirements and help safeguard public health by reducing risks associated with biologics.

Application

BSA for protein quantitation USP reference standard in specified compendial tests and assays.

Also used to prepare standard and suitability standard solutions during the determination of total protein in pharmaceutical drug substances and products according to the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) general chapter.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Se sospecha que ciertos epítopos conformacionales y de secuencia primaria son alérgenos en las alergias humanas a la leche y a la carne.

Preparation Note

La seroalbúmina puede denominarse también Fracción V. Esta convención de nomenclatura procede del método original de fraccionamiento de las proteínas séricas de Cohn en el que se utiliza precipitación en etanol frío. Utilizando dicho método, la seroalbúmina se encontró en la fracción quinta del etanol. Desde entonces, algunos han venido utilizando la expresión «Fracción V» para describir la albúmina sérica, al margen del método de preparación. Otros han utilizado este término para describir la seroalbúmina purificada por métodos de fraccionamiento en etanol que se han modificado mucho desde que se describió el método Cohn original. Sigma-Aldrich fabrica y distribuye seroalbúminas purificadas mediante una variedad de métodos primarios, entre ellos el verdadero método de fraccionamiento de Cohn, los métodos de fraccionamiento en etanol modificados, el fraccionamiento térmico y la cromatografía. Etapas de purificación añadidas pueden ser la cristalización o la filtración en carbón activado.
