Product Description

Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) is a protein derived from the blood plasma of cows. Belonging to the albumin family, it serves various biochemical and biophysical applications due to its unique properties. BSA possesses a molecular weight of approximately 66,000 Daltons, making it an ideal standard protein for size exclusion chromatography and electrophoresis experiments. Its abundant availability and stability make BSA a valuable tool in research and diagnostic laboratories, enabling accurate protein quantification and facilitating enzyme reactions.

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation.

Lyophilized BSA although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored 2-8° C. Upon reconstitution BSA should be stored at 4° C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18° C. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
