Source of albumin for AD

| posted yesterday, 15:55
Greetings, Mycobacterium smegmatis community! I normally purchase my albumin to make AD from Spectrum. I've never had a problem with them in the past, but I placed an order with them in November that is backordered until the end of February. The back order date keeps changing, so I finally asked them if they REALLY knew that the albumin would be shipped at the end of February, or if they were just being hopeful and they were making up these dates. Turns out they are making up the backorder dates and they have no idea when the albumin will arrive. I have enough to last me at least a month, but could someone recommend another supplier for me? Thanks!

Hi Kathleen,

The Fisher quote on seaphages.org includes albumin. You can access the quote here, under Phage Discvery component: https://seaphages.org/faculty/information/
