Gastrin(1-17)-BSA is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling Gastrin(1-17) to bovine serum albumin (BSA). As a hapten, Gastrin(1-17) alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity. The peptide partial sequence is Pyr-GPWLEEEEEAYGWMDF-NH₂. Gastrin(1-17)-BSA may be supplied as a lyophilized powder or as a solution. The solution is prepared in 0.01 M TBS (pH 7.4) buffer at a typical concentration of 1 mg/mL.
