Why Choose Boval For Your Cell Culture Needs
Posted By admin / 15th May, 2017
At Boval, our customers love that they can get the highest quality Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) for use in their lab’s cell culture. It’s important to them because of how necessary cell culture is for a huge amount of medical, pharmaceutical, and biochemical research.
Cells are some of the most valuable tools available in cellular and molecular biology, but they have to be grown and handled with care. They provide models for studying the biochemistry of the cells themselves, as well as for studying the effects of drugs, toxins, and other outside influences on the growth of the cells.
Cell lines provide consistent and reproducible results that allow researchers to better understand various cells and their behavior under different circumstances. Cells can be used in cancer research, vaccine production, virology, toxicity testing, gene therapy and much more. They’re an essential component for any lab or manufacturer in the biochemical or biomedical fields.
Because they’re so important, you have to have the best products on hand to ensure your cell’s growth and production. At Boval, we specialize in producing BSA that our customers use to aid their cell line’s growth and stability.
Your choice of suppliers for BSA does matter and at Boval, we know that one BSA won’t work for all of our customers’ needs. That’s why we have over 30 custom BSA formulations in both liquid and lyophilized form, some produced specifically for superior growth promotion of mammalian cells.
In 2010, we also developed and introduced an innovative and new cell culture grade of Human Serum Albumin (HSA) to the world as an alternative to the USP therapeutic grade. The USP grade HSA is the raw material we start with for ours. We then process ours further to remove the caprylate, fatty acids and other growth inhibitors required by the USP in order to make it into a high protein growth serum.
We have 39 years of BSA manufacturing experience and our team is committed to delivering a product that is not only the highest quality and purity available, but is also customized to our customers’ exact specifications. Our facility is USDA and FDA registered and uses cGMP and HACCP quality programs in combination with a quality management system certified to ISO9001:2008 and ISO13485:2003.
You can be certain that the BSA you receive from Boval will be exactly what you need for your cell lines and it will meet or exceed the absolute highest standards that you use in your work.
A reliable and knowledgeable partner is critical when it comes to procuring BSA or HSA for your cell culture needs. Our staff at Boval has years of experience in a multitude of different disciplines, making us an authority on all things relating to albumin and its uses in cell culture.
That experience and longevity in the industry makes us the perfect choice when it comes to picking a partner for your BSA or HSA needs. We can answer any questions you may have, so give us a call today and let’s get started.
