Product was derived from bovine blood collected at a USDA licensed facility. The cattle received ante- and post-mortem health inspection under a veterinarian's supervision and were apparently free from infectious and contagious diseases. All donor animals were sourced from the United States. Blood collection records were incorporated into a manufacturing batch documents.
Bovine serum albumin is broadly used as an additive to cell culture media, especially serum-free media. It provides a range of benefits including protection from oxidative damage and stabilization of other media components such as fatty acids and pyridoxal.
Albumin bovine is a single polypeptide chain consisting of about 583 amino acid residues and no carbohydrates. At pH 5-7 it contains 17 intrachain disulfide bridges and 1 sulfhydryl group.
Bovine Albumin 30% Solution is manufactured from fresh bovine plasma or serum by fractionation process that yields a preparation which provides optimal performance in immunohematological test systems. This reagent is a solution containing 30 grams of bovine albumin/dL. It has a pH of 7.4 and is physiologically compatible with normal red blood cells. The sodium chloride content is 0.6 g/dL.
