alginic acid

Alginic acid (Snow acid algin G) is a natural polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweeds with anti-anaphylactic and anti-inflammatory activities. Alginic acid inhibits histamine release and can be used in the food industry.

Alginic acid-BSA is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling Alginic acid to bovine serum albumin (BSA). As a hapten, Alginic acid alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity. Alginic acid-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.

Alginic acid-KLH is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling Alginic acid to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). As a hapten, Alginic acid alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity. Alginic acid-KLH 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.
