For example: "Fatty acid stock solutions (100 mM) were made by dissolving their sodium salts in 70% ethanol with gradual heating to 55◦C. 8% fatty acid-free low-endotoxin bovine serum albumin (BSA) dissolved in serum-free DMEM-F12 was prepared fresh and sterile-filtered (0.2m) before each experiment. Fatty acids were complexed to BSA for 1 h at 37◦C to achieve a fatty acid:albumin molar ratio of ∼2 : 1 and the solution sterile-filtered before being added to cells."
Thanks for your help,
