Albumin, Bovine Fraction V [BSA]

Albumin, Bovine Fraction V (BSA) is a highly purified protein derived from bovine serum, commonly used as a stabilizer, carrier, and blocking agent in biochemical and molecular biology applications. The Fraction V designation refers to the traditional method of purification via ammonium sulfate precipitation, ensuring a high level of protein purity and consistency. BSA is water-soluble, non-toxic, and retains its biological activity, making it suitable for a wide range of laboratory uses.

It is widely employed to stabilize enzymes and other proteins, prevent non-specific binding in immunoassays, and supplement cell culture media. Its versatility, high solubility, and consistent quality make BSA an essential reagent in research applications such as ELISA, Western blotting, and protein quantification assays.
