Unlike many protein products available on the market, Aladdin products are not formulated with carrier proteins or other additives (e.g., BSA, HSA, sucrose, etc.). As a result, the small amounts of protein can be deposited on the vial during lyophilization as a thin, and sometimes invisible, film. Before opening, we recommend centrifuging each vial in a microcentrifuge for 20-30 seconds to drive any protein that may be lodged in the cap or on the side to the bottom of the vial. Our quality control procedures assure that each vial contains the correct amount of product.
Da — when not otherwise indicated, molecular weight units are daltons. Mw — weight-average molecular weight. Mn — number-average molecular weight.
