Thoracic duct cells and spleen cells were tested for their ability to restore the primary antibody response of X-irradiated rats to bovine serum albumin (BSA), sheep red blood cells (SRBC), horse spleen femtin (HSF), and Salmonella typhi flagella. Spleen cells were at least as efficient as thoracic duct cells in restoring the response to BSA, HSF, and Salmonella typhi flagella. In further exper...

Here we describe the preparation of BSA-FITC-loaded microcapsules as a model protein system for in vivo delivery. BSA-FITC-loaded microcapsules were prepared using a mono-axial nozzle ultrasonic atomizer, varying a number of parameters to determine optimal conditions. The preparation method chosen resulted in a BSA-FITC encapsulation efficiency of approximately 60% and a particle size of approx...

in this research, effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) on motility and fertility of indigenous rooster spermatozoa was evaluated using 20 and 48 indigenous roosters and hens, respectively. semen was collected and pooled. in the first experiment, the pooled semen was diluted and divided into four aliquots.the treatments were included the diluted semen without bsa and with 1% bsa; in each group, ...

Introduction: Targeting of therapeutics and contrast media to tumors is limited by unfavorable biodistribution. We previously reported the exclusion of intravenously administered biotin-BSA-GdDTPA to stroma tracks in ovarian tumor xenografts (1, 2). Within the stroma tracks, biotin-BSA-GdDTPA was effectively internalized by the myofibroblasts by caveolae mediated uptake, which could be suppress...

Investigation on interaction of azo dyes with bovine serum albumin as carrier protein will be important in the field of toxicology because of distribution and transportation of dyes in blood. In this regard, the interaction between the azo dye, trisodium (4E)-3-oxo-4-[(4- sulfonato-1- naphthyl) hydrazono] naphthalene-2,7-disulfonate (C20H11N2Na3O10S3), known as Amaranth and bovine serum albumin...

Antibody  based  methods  have  numerous  advantages  compared  to  other  detection  methods. However, heavy metals cannot stimulate the immune antibody response; it is the main obstacle for preparation of the antibodies that used in detection methods of the metals. The production of the immunogenic Pb complexes by using cost benefit linkers of EDTA and DTPA were investigated in this  study.BS...

This paper presents the development of novel alternative injectable calcium phosphate cement (CPC) composites for orthopaedic applications. The new CPC composites comprise β-tri-calcium phosphate (β-TCP) and di-calcium phosphate anhydrous (DCPA) mixed with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and incorporated with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) or functionalized MWCNTs (MWCNTs-OH and MWCNTs-COOH)...
