ORDERING INFORMATION | |
Product Name | Oryza Sativa Recombinant Human Serum Albumin (OSrHSA) |
Catalog No | cAP-54 |
Size | 1gram, or 10gram |
Storage | 2-8C |
Product Description | |
Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein found in human blood plasma. It is produced in the liver. The biological functions of albumin include normalization of the colloidal osmotic blood pressure and transportation and metabolization of endogenous and exogenous molecules (e.g. fatty acids, amino acids, steroids, hormones, metals) and pharmaceutical drugs. Oryza Sativa recombinant human serum albumin (OSrHSA) is genetically engineered and derived from a rice-based expression system. It is a highly purified and completely animal-, virus-, and bacteria-free product that was developed as an alternative to plasma-derived HSA, to which it is structurally equivalent. |
Advantages and Applications | |
OSrHSA is plant-derived, which eliminates the risk of bacterial and viral contaminations. Additionally, the greater consistency of OSrHSA saves time while providing better performance. Finally, the low price of OSrHSA allows for a reduction in downstream product cost without sacrificing the quality. OSrHSA is suitable as a cell culture media supplement to promote cell growth and increase recombinant protein yield. It can also be used as an additive for reduced-serum or serum-free culture media and in the cryopreservation of cells. OSrHSA is also ideal for reference applications, such as electrophoresis, when protein contaminates are not desired. It can also be used as a blocking agent in Western blots and ELISA applications. |

Caution | Handling human and animal tissue derived products is potentially bio-hazardous. Although each cell strain is tested negative for HIV, HBV and HCV DNA, or pathogens, diagnostic tests are not necessarily 100% accurate; therefore proper precautions must be taken to avoid inadvertent exposure. Always wear gloves and safety glasses when working with these materials. Never mouth pipette. We recommend following the universal procedures for handling products of human origin as the minimum precaution against contamination. |
For customers using our primary cell products, we strongly advise you using our own medium, although similar cell growth medium can be purchased and used for our primary cell products. |
The quality of cells, in term of their growth features stated in our datasheets, will not be guaranteed if NON-ANGIO-PROTEOMIE's Cell Growth Medium is used. |
Due to the sensitive nature of primary cells and cell lines, all quality related issues about the cells products must be reported back to us within ONE month period after receiving the products, no quality warranty (i.e. replacement of cells) will be provided after the ONE-Month period. Thank you for your understanding. |
