Recombinant Human Serum Albumin (rHSA) from Yeast Expression

Human Serum Albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in human plasma, essential for maintaining osmotic pressure and transporting key molecules. Through recombinant protein production, we offer a safer, animal-free alternative: recombinant HSA (rHSA), produced in genetically engineered Hansenula polymorpha yeast.

Global availability of rHSA

Basic Pharma supplies recombinant human serum albumin to customers worldwide, combining high product quality with dependable international logistics to support research and biomanufacturing across multiple regions.

High-Purity, Animal-Free rHSA

Our rHSA is produced through a yeast-based recombinant protein expression platform. The HSA gene is inserted into the genome of Hansenula polymorpha, enabling the yeast’s endogenous protein machinery to produce tag-free rHSA.

The developed production process includes optimized upstream process development (gene integration, fermentation) and downstream purification (filtration, chromatography), resulting in high-purity rHSA (>95%).

Benefits of rHSA from Hansenula polymorpha

  • Animal-free and free from viral contamination

  • 95% purity verified by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

  • Lyophilized powder for long-term stability and storage

  • Ready-to-use: reconstitution requires no dialysis

  • Manufactured in an EU-GMP facility

  • Batch-to-batch consistency

Our Tag-free HSA is chemically and functionally identical to the plasma-derived HSA.
