Although the soy-based adhesive was pretty strong, the team achieved even better results with a different protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA). BSA is a generic protein often used in labs for experiments. It’s cheap for researchers, but not cheap enough to make a BSA-based adhesive affordable on a large commercial scale.
Ingawa wambiso wa msingi wa soya ulikuwa na nguvu sana, timu ilipata matokeo bora zaidi na protini tofauti, albin ya serum ya bovine (BSA). BSA ni protini ya kawaida ambayo hutumiwa mara nyingi katika maabara kwa majaribio. Ni ya bei nafuu kwa watafiti, lakini sio nafuu ya kutosha kufanya wambiso wa msingi wa BSA wa bei nafuu kwa kiwango kikubwa cha kibiashara.
