The benefits of using animal by-product-free buffers result in an improved assay sensitivity, minimal non-specific binding, and high signal-to-background ratio, as the buffers ensure no cross-reactions with your animal source antigens and antibodies, due to being 100% free of animal proteins. 

The animal by-product-free (ABP-free) buffers are BSA free, with no harmful organic solvents - therefore easing cross border paperwork and improving assay reproducibility and reducing regulatory concerns. This is also aligned with our ECO-TEK product line.

Buffers containing ABP can introduce significant variability between batches, making it harder to ensure reproducible assay performance. By eliminating animal-derived components, our solutions help you achieve more reliable and standardized results in your immunoassays.

From a regulatory perspective, animal by-products are strictly controlled within the European Union under Regulation 1069/2009 and the Implementing Regulation 142/2011, which govern the collection, handling, and use of animal-derived materials not intended for human consumption. While necessary, they often add complexity, cost, and restrictions for laboratories and manufacturers relying on ABP-containing reagents.

By choosing ABP-free buffers, you make it easier to meet global regulatory requirements, facilitate smoother international distribution, and ensure market access - particularly within European countries. In addition, the absence of animal-derived components supports the growing global demand for ethical, sustainable, and animal-free laboratory practices.

With our animal by-product-free solutions, you benefit from reliable performance, reduced risk of contamination, and easier compliance - making them the safer choice for your immunoassays.
