Description

General description

This is a highly purified BSA. One of the highest purity bovine albumins commercially available, minimizing interfering components in sensitive applications. Crystal like presentation of this BSA simplifies handling, weighing, and dispensing. This bovine albumin has a purity specification of >=99%; typical purity is 100%. This BSA may be used for molecular biology applications.

Application

Probumin^® BSA products are fit for use as blockers, protein/antibody (conjugate) stabilizers, and in immunoassays (EIA, RIA and serology systems).

Features and Benefits

• High-quality and reliability. Assurance of consistency in performance and supply.
• Proprietary heat shock and cold solvent fractionation process optimizes the protein yield, purity, and efficacy of BSA. Large batch capacity.
• Safe serum sourcing from USDA-licensed facilities exclusively from U.S. cattle.
