Description

General description

Fatty Acid-Albumin - complexes have been employed as alternative sources of lipids in the development of serum-free media. Fatty acids bind to serum proteins in high proportions. Such proteins may release beneficial fatty acids and bind those that are inhibitory. Linoleic acid, a precursor of prostaglandins bound to BSA is beneficial to the growth of a variety of cell types (e.g., BHK, hybridoma). It also improves its stability and solubility in culture media.

Application

Linoleic Acid-Albumin from bovine serum albumin is used in the cell line culture and cell differentiation medium.
