Cell Culture Media Additive: Serum albumin is used throughout the field of molecular biology as an additive to cell culture media. Albumin is a natural component of serum that supports the health and growth of cells. In serum-free media albumin improves cell growth and is often used in place of fetal bovine serum (FBS).
A Blocking Agent and Protein Stabilizer: Albumin is a common blocking agent because of its binding properties. It can greatly reduce contaminating binding that can interfere in common molecular biology assays. It is also used as a blocking agent in many other clinical applications like diagnostic procedures, medical devices and surgical stents. Albumin helps stabilize other proteins in solution.
Binding Applications: Albumin is used in many implantable biomaterials, surgical adhesives and surgical sealants due to its ability to coagulate. Its conjugation seals and binds in a way that few other biomaterials can.
