Blocking buffer (10% BSA in 1X PBS) made of high-quality BSA is a ready-to-use solution which can be used for blocking steps in Western blot, ELISA, IHC and nucleic acid detection methods.
Blocking buffer (1% BSA in 1X PBS) is made of high-quality BSA that is useful for saturating excess protein-binding sites on membranes and microplates in immunoassays. A good blocking buffer for a specific experiment will bind to all potential sites of nonspecific interaction, eliminating background without altering or obscuring the epitope for antibody binding. This Blocking Buffer is a ready-to-use solution which can be used for blocking steps in Western blot, ELISA, IHC and nucleic acid detection methods.
