Canvax Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA)

Canvax Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) is a high-quality, high-performance protein reagent derived from bovine serum and suitable for a wide range of biochemical and molecular biology applications. Known for its consistency, stability, and versatility, BSA is widely used as a stabilizer, blocking agent, and standard protein in life sciences.

It plays a crucial role in regulating osmotic pressure in blood and is often used in protein quantification assays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), western blots, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and as a carrier protein in immunological applications.

Key Features

✅ High Purity and Stability

• Ensures minimal interference and high reproducibility across experiments
• Low endotoxin and low fatty acid content options available (upon request)

✅ Versatile Use Across Applications

• Effective as a blocking reagent in ELISA and western blot to prevent non-specific binding
• Suitable as a stabilizing agent in enzyme and antibody solutions
• Commonly used in protein standard calibration (e.g., Bradford assay)

✅ Multiple Formats for Workflow Flexibility

• Lyophilized BSA, pH ~7: Long shelf-life and easy reconstitution
• 30% Liquid BSA: Ready-to-use for routine lab applications
