The Pierce™ BSA Standard Ampules are high-purity, precisely calibrated bovine serum albumin (BSA) solutions used to generate accurate and reproducible standard curves for total protein quantification assays. Supplied at a fixed concentration of 2.00 ± 0.03 mg/mL, these ready-to-use ampules are traceable to NIST Fraction V BSA and ensure consistency across BCA, Bradford, Lowry, and other colorimetric or absorbance-based assays.
With ultra-pure 0.9% saline + 0.05% sodium azide as the diluent, these standards offer high stability at room temperature, reducing variability in spectrophotometric protein analysis.
Key Features and Benefits
- High Accuracy – Calibrated to NIST-traceable BSA Fraction V reference
- Pre-Measured – Supplied in 1 mL sealed ampules for consistency and convenience
- Universal Compatibility – Suitable for use with BCA, Coomassie-Bradford, Lowry, and other protein assays
- Stable and Safe – Room temperature storage with 0.05% sodium azide as preservative
- Minimizes Preparation Error – Eliminates pipetting errors in standard dilution preparation
