Carbo-Free Blocking Solution (10x Concentrate)

The Carbo-Free Blocking Solution is a protein-based agent used as a general blocking or diluent solution. It is ideal for applications using lectins in which glycoprotein contamination could generate background staining or false positive results.

Features:

• Essentially free of glycoproteins, unlike other common protein-containing blocking agents like serum, nonfat dry milk, or casein
• Supplied as 125 ml of 10x concentrate
