General description
• Albumin, bovine serum (BSA) is available as a protease-free, lyophilized powder that may be stably stored at 2-8°c
• It is comprised of 583 amino acid residues, and has a molecular weight of 66.5 kDa

Applications
• BSA is used as a protein standard in quantification assays, such as the Bradford protein assay
• It is used to stabilize enzymes in restriction digestions in molecular biology experiments
• It is a blocking agent in immunoblots thus increasing signal to noise ratios by quenching non-specific immunochemical reactions
• BSA is a nutritive agent and used as a supplement in cell and microbial culture media
