Background

Bovine serum albumin (BSA), also known as Fraction V, is a soluble 66.5 kDa protein derived from cows. BSA is often used as a conjugate for small molecules, such as peptides, to increase their size and confer properties more amenable for assays such as solid phase ELISAs. In experiments where BSA-conjugates are used, rigorous experiments should include negative controls that demonstrate that responses are to the peptide of interest, and not the BSA portion of the molecule. GMA-630 binds BSA and BSA-conjugated peptides in solid phase ELISA.
