General description
Exbumin™ is high-purity recombinant human serum albumin with high lysine reactivity. It contains low levels of albumin aggregates and lipids and high concentration of free-thiol/Cys-34 mercapto-albumin. This USA-origin rHSA is animal-free.
Application
ExbuminInvitria is recombinant human serum that acts as carrier protein for fatty acids and growth factors. It is added as an ingredient to classical and custom media formulations. This recombinant variant is recommended for use in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) pharmacological research; cell culture; drug delivery research; and cryopreservation of cells. ExbuminInvitria has been observed to improve the performance of multiple cell types.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Serum albumin functions as a carrier protein for steroids, fatty acids, and thyroid hormones. They are also vital in regulating the colloidal osmotic pressures of blood. Serum albumins protect the cells against physical or toxins-induced stress.
