General description

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a globular, α-helical, non-glycosylated protein is produced in the liver. It consists of three homologous, structurally different domains and two sub-domains each. BSA has 17 cysteine residues cross-linked and bound into a single chain.

Application

Bovine Serum Albumin Fraction V, protease-free is used:
  • for stabilization of purified enzymes
  • for site-blocking reagent in ELISA techniques
  • as a protein standard for determination of protein concentration

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) facilitates the transmission of drugs, hormones, and fatty acids. It is the most commonly used blocking agent in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). BSA enhances the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) and is also a chief component of cell culture media.
