Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: SHBG

Human SHBG (Sex hormone-binding globulin), also known as ABP (Testis-specific Androgen-binding protein) or TeBG (Testosterone-estradiol-binding globulin), is a variably glycosylated, secreted non-disulfide linked homodimer that belongs to the SHBG family (1). Members of this small family have tandem repeats of 170 amino acid (aa) long laminin alpha chain G‑ like domains. Each SHBG monomer is a 47-53 kDa, 373 aa glycoprotein that contains one steroid-binding site in its N-terminal G‑ like domain (2). SHBG is synthesized by the liver and circulates in blood. It binds to certain androgens and estrogens and serves as a transporter for the bound steroids (3); it is also involved in receptor mediated processes (4). Human SHBG shares approximately 67% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat SHBG. Low SHGB levels are associated with increased risk for type 2 diabetes for both man and women (5).
