Packed human red blood cells, diluted 1:1 with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 0-21% bovine serum albumin was used as a blood meal source for Anopheles farauti. Egg and larval production linearly increased with bovine serum albumin concentration in PBS. When the saline contained 9-21% bovine serum albumin, egg production was equivalent to that obtained when mosquitoes were fed direct...

this study was aimed at the evaluation of the influence of storage under various conditions on the relative concentrations of major protein fractions and their proportion in bovine serum. blood samples were taken from six dairy cattle of a low-land black spotted breed and its crossbreeds. the separated blood serum was fractioned into aliquots. one aliquot was analysed immediately after the sepa...

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was detected using bovine serum albumin (BSA)-functionalized manganese-doped zinc sulfide (Mn–ZnS) quantum dots (QDs), and the phosphate substrate vitamin-B 6 cofactor pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP).

A ~ t T h e interaction of concanavalin A with a comprehensive series of carbohydrate-bovine serum albumin conjugates was investigated by agar gel diffusion and quantitative precipitation techniques. These studies showed that when conjugated to bovine serum albumin, those sugars which inhibited concanavalin A-polysaccharide interaction formed a precipitate with concanavalin A. The unexpected re...

the interaction of bovine serum albumin ( bsa) and egg albumin with water solublephthalocyanine, cobalt (ιι) 4, 4′ , 4′′, 4′′′- tetrasulfophthalocyanine ( cotspc) , has been studiedby the uv- vis method at ph 7.0 and five different temperatures 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40°c. theformation constants have been elucidated by using spectrophotometric titration and computersquad program data refinement. th...

Antibodies to the oligodeoxyribonucleotides d(pT)3, d(pT)4, d(pT)6 and d(pA-A-T-T) were elicited in rabbits by immunization with electrostatic complexes of the respective haptens with methylated bovine serum albumin (MBSA). The antisera were assayed by complement fixation using denatured DNA's of various sources as antigens. The specificities of the antibodies were determined by estimating the ...

Herein, we report the interaction of N, N-dimethyl-2-oxopyrrolidinium iodide with bovine serum albumin by using steady-state fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, UV-visible and Fourier Transform-Infrared spectroscopy in combination with molecular docking method. The steady state fluorescence spectra results confirmed that N, N-dimethyl2-oxopyrrolidinium iodide strongly quenches the intrins...

Serum albumin is one of the most widely studied proteins. It is the most abundant protein in plasma with a typical concentration of 5 g/100 mL and the principal transporter of fatty acids in plasma. While the crystal structures of human serum albumin (HSA) free and in complex with fatty acids, hemin, and local anesthetics have been characterized, no crystallographic models are available on bovi...

Native and reversed horse serum albumin are indistinguishable when tested immunologically by means of the precipitin reaction.

The interaction of the dye reactive bright red 6C with bovine serum albumin has been investigated. Formation of a complex between reactive bright red 6C and bovine serum albumin was detected by use of absorption difference spectroscopy. The curves obtained by titration of the protein against the dye were recorded at different pH and ionic strength of the solution. An unusual form of titration c...
