FAQ: What effect does BSA have on the performance of NEB’s restriction enzymes when included in the new buffers?

In general, NEB has not determined any negative effects when including BSA in the reaction buffer. In some instances, activity may be enhanced. Also, BSA in the reaction buffer can stabilize the enzymes and make them more resistant to heat inactivation.
