Bovine Serum Albumin (Acetylated)

Bovine Serum Albumin acetylated to inactivate contaminating nucleases; used as a suplemment in biochemical reactions.

Description:

• Prolongs half-lifetime of enzymes during reaction.
• Suitable for dilution of restriction endonucleases and nucleic acid modifying enzymes.
• For use in reaction systems requiring nuclease-free bovine serum albumin (1).
• Can be used as a carrier protein for antibody production.
• Stabilizing agent during PCR amplification.

Storage Conditions: Store at –20°C.

Storage Buffer: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5 at 22°C).

Quality Control: All preparations are assayed for contamination by endonuclease, nonspecific DNase and RNase activities.

Concentration: Contains 20-50 mg/ml bovine serum albumin in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5 at 22°C), sterile buffer.
