Key Features and Details
Normal goat serum is commonly used for the blocking of non-specific antibody binding in tissue and cell staining, and in other applications of antibodies. It can successfully reduce nonspecific binding of proteins and antibodies to reaction surfaces and non-specific binding sites. It provides an alternative to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and non-fat dry milk.
