Alkali-Soluble Casein is a superior blocking reagent for Western blot applications. This preparation minimizes non-specific background relative to other blocking reagents, such as BSA, gelatin, or non-fat milk. Alkali-Soluble Casein is effective in colorimetric and chemiluminescent detection protocols.
Casein is the collective name for a family of milk proteins. In bovine milk, casein comprises four peptides: αS1, αS2, β, and κ, differing in their amino acid, phosphorus and carbohydrate content but similar in their amphiphilic character. Hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions of casein show block distribution in the protein chain. Casein peptides carry negative charge on their surface as a result of phosphorylation and tend to bind nanoclusters of amorphous calcium phosphate.
