BSA-Linoleate omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Complex

BSA-linoleate omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid complex is composed of linoleic acid (Cay-90150, Cay-90150.1, Cay-21909) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) at an approximately 6:1 molar ratio of linoleate:BSA. BSA-linoleate complexes can be used for efficient fatty acid delivery to cells in culture for the purpose of monitoring fatty acid oxidation or similar processes in various cellular metabolic studies. The BSA/BSA-FAs are acceptable for use with short-term cell culture applications (acute treatment to 18 hours), however, for long-term applications (25+ hours) the product can/should be filter-sterilized using a 0.2 µm filter and sterile receptacle without affecting the performance. For best results, it is recommended that this product be used in conjunction with BSA control for BSA-fatty acid complexes (1 mM) (Cay-34932).Source: Animal/Bovine. Formulation: (Request formulation change), 1 mM linoleate:0.17 mM BSA in 150 mM sodium chloride. Origin: Animal/Bovine.
